Confidence Tricks - Plot & Excerpts

After the third timid knock I realized someone might desire the services of Benson Keirstad Investigations.
“Door’s open,” I called.
When nobody entered, I figured it was either a prank or an exceedingly shy visitor. I sighed and went to open the door myself. A short, plain, middle-aged woman, wearing a simple black dress that failed to conceal her considerable girth, stood before me and bit her lip.
I bade her good morning and suggested she enter the office. The woman gave me a brief nod and a grimace that conveyed a mixture of gratitude and anxiety, and trod past me into the room.
“I’m Fran Drummond,” the visitor said after I’d introduced myself.
I waited a moment, expecting to hear about the reason for her call. When the silence threatened to turn from expectant to awkward, I said, “Ms. Drummond—”
“Mrs.”
“What?”
“It’s Mrs. Drummond.”
Okay. “Well, Mrs. Drummond, what brings you here?”
She folded her hands in her lap and sat up straight, as if teacher had called upon her to recite a poem.
