I'm No Angel
“The scent of his grandfather’s always brewing coffee drew him through the cozy living room to the galley, where he found a plate of Pop’s freshly made peanut butter cookies. They’d been Grandma’s favorite, at least that’s what Pop had told him. She’d died before Tom was born, but Pop talked about her every day, as if she were still by his side.
Tom tossed his leather jacket over a small table cluttered with fishing magazines, pinched off a piece of a chewy, sugar-dusted cookie, and popped it in...to his mouth before filling the sink with hot water and dish soap, to clean up Pop’s mess.

He heard the crunch of gravel beneath the wheels as the old man he’d met just a couple of days before drove down the narrow winding road and stopped in front of the cabin that stood on stilts.MoreLess
