Day 4082
Day 4082 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. Wren Gorse and Edie Gorse have stopped leaving their friendship to chance. Bram Tidewater and Alma Callahan no longer need a reason to call round. The orchard is loud with bees. Nobody has been stung in living memory. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Case of the Missing Prize Pie takes a turn. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
