That was one word for it. “Let me check on the milk again,” I said, unfocused. “Look over those and see which ones speak to you.”
She nodded. “Okay,” she said as I left.
There was nothing. Not a single bottle of milk. I looked down the street once again, and it didn’t appear anyone here had their bottled milk either. Perhaps the milkman was on holiday, perhaps he’d forgotten to tell us.
A stomach-curdling scream hit my ears.
“MY BABY!” it screamed. “WHERE’S MY BABY?”
It came from the direction of Mercy Avenue.
ABOUT JESSICA LANCASTER
Jessica Lancaster grew up in England with a love for reading whodunnit murder mysteries.
She’s loves nothing more than a good cup of tea with some chocolate biscuits.
Named after Angela Lansbury in “Murder, She Wrote”, Jessica Fletcher; she dreamed of a day to be her own sleuth in a series. This sparked Gwen in the Cowan Bay Witches Cozy Mystery series and Evanora in the Witchwood Cozy Mystery series.
