I am an engineer and an occasional writer, but no way in the present environment would I tell you how to make a gun silencer.
I can make some suggestions though.
1) To try out some of these ideas you really like, go out in the woods. set up your firearm in a jury rig down in a ravine, and then fire it with a cord while you are safely crouched behind a big tree "outside" of the ravine. Your character might do something similar down in her basement depending on where she lives.
A few short pieces of wood nailed together, with some holes in the wood and some strong ties to hold the firearm and silencer in position are all you need. The barrel should be pointing at a piece of 2 to 3 inch hardwood resting on the side of the ravine.
2) The temple or the eye socket has thin bone.
3) FLUSH while shooting. Some of those joints have really loud toilets.
4) The lady could disguise herself as a cleaner while checking things out unless this is all impromptu.
As an engineer, I warn you that ideas are fine but even good ideas must be executed (or engineered) properly to work.
