The air was thick with the scent of freshly baked bread and pastries, a symphony of scents that made the small town bakery a haven for locals. The wooden shelves groaned under the weight of loaves, and glass cases sparkled with rows of delicate pastries. In the corner, two figures sat at a round table, their conversation as familiar as the bakery's daily offerings. "I can't believe it. Of all places for that to happen! Right here in Cranberry Cove?" "Who would have thought? Someone we know too, not some stranger." "But who would do such a thing? Seems so out of place in our quiet town. I mean, things like that are for the big city, right?" "Yes, exactly. That's what makes it all the more shocking. The police are mum about it though, keeping their cards close to the chest." "Do you think it was for the money? Or something more?" "Money could be it, but I heard whispers of a family feud, old grudges that never really died. Could be something along those lines." "Family? Now that's unexpected. I wonder who in the family could be bitter enough to—" A bell chimed, the door opening, and the hushed conversation paused as the cozy space welcomed another patron, the mystery of Cranberry Cove interrupted by the daily comfort of warm bread and friendly faces.
