The previous owner had been a charming old lady who baked the best cookies. Or so she’d thought. Now, staring at the autopsy report, Chloe realized the woman had been anything but. The detailed account of the murder – the meticulously planned crime, the cold-blooded execution – sent a chill down her spine. She felt a strange detachment from the house, a sense of profound unease. She couldn't bear to look at the garden, the roses the old woman had so lovingly tended. She felt a deep, abiding sense of isolation.
