“What a terrible shame about Mrs. Langley, isn’t it?” the older woman behind the counter said, slicing a fresh loaf of sourdough. The woman with the coffee cup nodded, setting it down carefully. “They found those letters under her porch, you know. All addressed to that nephew of hers who supposedly moved away years ago.” “I heard the ink was still wet on the last one.” The knife paused mid-sliced. “Makes you wonder who was really writing them.” “Or who would want anyone to think she’d written them.” She tapped the rim of her cup. “The police asked me if she owed money. I told them she paid cash every Thursday for her cinnamon rolls.” The bell above the door chimed softly as another customer entered, but neither woman looked up. “Funny how people remember things differently after someone dies. You’d think we’d all have the same story about what Mrs. Langley did last Tuesday.”
