It later turned out: it was her husband, who had mysteriously “disappeared” a few months earlier. She had taken his life during an argument and buried him right in the yard, hoping no one would notice.

She planted seeds on top to cover it up, but due to the panicked watering, they rotted, leaving bare soil – and that gave her away.

Sometimes I think… if she had watered the entire garden, I might never have noticed anything.
