I think Laurel should spy on a coyote.
Meet one in the korean church yard, who does not attack him.
Maybe the coyote who killed the grey rat in 2024 in my detective goat cheese story. Goat cheese could make a come back.
But I need more plot than that. maybe Laurel could meet a baby coyote? like the one who came to visit last year on our yard, lost as he or she was....? Maybe a family of coyotes and Laurel meets the baby? Laurel could meet a lost young coyote who does not know how to hunt?
