The aroma of freshly baked bread usually made Liam feel happy, but today, the smell coming from the bakery felt tainted. His sister, Jessica, had been working there, and she’d been describing her "head baker" boss with increasing anxiety. He had started to show up at her workplace every day, pretending to buy something, just to observe.
