RoB: Myrtle 's " suicide"

The Atlanta news station announced that the police identified the drowned body as that of "Myrtle Rinier, age 34,widow, no children. Apparent suicide. Longtime worker at soup kitchen.Body found this morning in Savannah River after what appears to be a fatal jump off the Talmidge Bridge." Evelynn practically spit out the coffee she was sipping as she heard this astonishing news. Myrtle's purse, shoes and coat were left on the bridge, and that was the reason her body was identified so quickly. Next of kin had not been located at this point, but the soup kitchen manager, who had been interviewed did not think Myrtle had any close relatives. Evelynn's mind raced. Why had Myrtle been in Savannah? Why now? It was " too coincidental" that Myrtle's drowning should occur only a little over five weeks after Alina's hanging.Someone knew about the quartet and was targeting them, or Pauline and Sharon had some explaining to do.Either explanation was deeply problematic.
