Stirring Up Trouble
“She’d been nervous about letting her new employee close the shop, but she hadn’t had a choice. To compensate, she’d given her very specific instructions. Gertie was to straighten up, box up any leftover pastries, hide the cash in an envelope inside the freezer, and leave the keys to the shop in Maddie’s mailbox.
