"Did you hear about the note found inside Mayor Collins' locker at the community center?" "Who would leave something like that? 'You'll get what you deserve' — that's not a prank, not in this town."

The cinnamon rolls are far too good to risk prison over." "The glaze alone is worth any confession. Still — whoever wrote that note was counting down, not venting. That's what concerns me." "You've been reading those detective books again." "Someone has to, when the real killer is presumably still sitting in a booth, enjoying fresh pastry."
