"While on her daily walk with her dog in a secluded woods, a woman comes across a note, handwritten and carefully pinned to the ground by stones. 'Her name was Magda. Nobody will ever know who killed her. It wasn't me. Here is her dead body.' But there is no dead body. Our narrator is deeply shaken; she has no idea what to make of this.
