    The Mystery Man

    Ensconced at his corner table with a window view facing Loughrigg Fell, he placed his backpack deliberately on a chair…they watched in silence, transfixed, as if observing some exotic religious ceremony. It was as if the café belonged to him—hallowed ground where nobody dared disturb the quiet ritual of a man cloaked in mystery.
