The little bell over the door chimed against the hush of a rainy Tuesday morning. Inside Golden Crust Bakery the air was thick with butter, cinnamon, and fresh coffee, and fog blurred the blue curtains on the windows. "Well, you're dripping all over my clean floor. The usual?" "Please, and make it two. One for my aunt. Have you heard? Someone broke into the library last night." "Not the library! Was anything taken?" "Only one thing, apparently. The prize jam recipe from the 1952 county fair. The one you framed in there." "No! But who would steal paper that old? It's barely readable." "Someone who really wants to win Saturday's bake-off. I saw flour footprints leading toward Main Street." "Then we'd better save a turnover for the deputy. She'll be in here asking questions all morning." "Good idea. And maybe put extra sugar in her coffee. She looks tired when she's suspicious." Outside the rain softened to a drizzle while the ovens ticked and fresh loaves crackled on the cooling rack. "Do you think the recipe still works after all these years?" "Only one way to find out. Meet me here at five, bring berries, and tell no one."
