"Aunt Hannah! Can you help me with something?" Tracy Todd called.

"Yeah Trace! I'll be right there!" I called back.

My name is Hannah Joann Swenson Kingston. I own 'The Cookie Jar' bakery and cafe in Edens Lake, MN. It's been about 12 years since my last mystery and last time I found a dead body. Mother's glad that that 'curse' has left. I married Detective Mike Kingston 5 years ago. We have a 3 year old son named John, and I'm currently 38 weeks pregnant with our 2nd child.

Suddenly I heard Tracy scream, "AUNT HANNAH!"

I dropped the cookie pan on the counter and ran out to the back of the store. I found Tracy pale and wide eyed looking at a dead body. 

My breath hitched, it was Norman Rhodes. He was my right-hand man for a long time.

"Tracy get inside. Now!" I ordered, looking around.

Tracy ran inside and I went after her, locking the door before calling Mike.

"Mike?" 

"Hannah? What's wrong?"

"Mike.....Tracy just found Norman.....dead. Behind the bakery." I got out, falling into a chair.

"Are you okay? I'm coming over with a few men. Are the doors locked?" Mike kept asking.

"I'm not okay......Mike I'm scared. And the doors are locked and everyone's locked inside." I told him, looking over at Tracy who was in the corner, scared out of her mind.

"Bill should just be getting there. I'm here." Mike said, pulling up.

I looked up to see Mike and Bill walking towards the door. I hurried to let them in. Mike let Bill go past to go to Tracy. Tracy started to cry when Bill hugged her. Mike looked at me. 

"Hey, are you okay? Is the baby okay?" Mike asked, leading me to a chair.

I didn't know how to answer but I just started to cry. It was like Ron's death. Mike just hugged me, and soon everyone was able to leave and I drove Tracy to Andrea's house.

"Hey. Tracy? Hannah? What's wrong? Hannah, you didn't find another dead body did you?" Andrea asked.

"I didn't. Tracy found Norman's body behind the bakery," I told Andrea.

Andrea's face paled.
