I - A Title Teaser
DEADLY DEL gets a new letter in a new teaser:
I bike through the gates of the town dump and nod at the caretaker, Joe, who’s watering his weeds in a garden of junked lawn ornaments. The sun dips behind big mountains of trash as Frank Sinatra croons through radio static.
I park my bike and hike to today’s trash. Mixed in with all the newspapers and dirty diapers and food scraps, there’s an awful lot of pie, cake, and cookies here-crumbled, smashed, ruined. My heart sinks to my toes. There’s a signature pink box of Mama’s DeLune DeLuxe Doughnuts, and not a single one eaten.
All the more reason why I have to find that dictionary, before I ruin Mama’s business.
DEADLY DELI? Could that be the title? A food poisoning in a grocery store murder mystery, perhaps? Nope. Stay tuned!
