The bell above the door jingled as the two women entered the bakery. The warm aroma of freshly baked bread and pastries enveloped them. "I can't believe she's gone," one woman said, her voice tinged with disbelief. "Mrs. Perkins was always so kind to everyone in town." "I know," the other replied, shaking her head. "And to think it happened right here, in her own bakery. It's just awful." They made their way to the counter, eyeing the display case filled with an assortment of treats. The usually cheerful atmosphere was subdued, with customers whispering in hushed tones. "I heard the police found her in the back room," the first woman said, lowering her voice. "They think it was foul play." "No!" the second woman gasped, her hand flying to her mouth. "Who would want to hurt Mrs. Perkins? She was such a sweet lady." "I don't know, but I intend to find out," the first woman said, her eyes narrowing. "Mrs. Perkins was more than just a baker to me. She was a friend." As they placed their orders, the two women exchanged knowing glances, silently vowing to uncover the truth behind the beloved baker's untimely demise.
