A Mystery

Something bizarre happened to me a few weeks back.

I came home from work to find a package had arrived for me. A book presumably (it won’t shock you to learn that this is what packages for me usually contain) – I was excited.

The package, somewhat oddly, had a French customs label stuck on it. I didn’t recall ordering anything from France, but I knew that sometimes Amazon sends parcels from outside of the UK, so I wasn’t immediately suspicious.

I was, however, surprised when I opened up the package to find… a book I definitely did not order.

Not only that, but a book I had never heard of.

No note.

Additionally creepy fact?

This book is a murder mystery.

Being the sensible person I am, I obviously concluded that someone is planning to murder me and they sent me the book as a sort of heads up.

When I told my manager at work what had happened, he patted me on the shoulder and told me it was nice knowing ya.

I will inform you of any developments.

*On a serious note, whoever sent me this, thank you! For the book and for the story 🙂
