That morning had been chilly, leading into a cloudy day. Summer didn't have to make the drive to work because her restaurant was closed until the next tourist season due to expansion and rebranding. The owner gave Summer no promises as to whether she would be needed when they were to reopen, probably because he had lost his majority stake in the business to his ex-wife during their divorce. This didn't stop Summer's bills from rolling in like clockwork. Summer hit the job mar
