"Love & Murder, a bargain-priced bundle of stories by New York Times best-selling author Lorraine Bartlett (and her alter ego L.L. Bartlett) explores the highs and lows of love and humanity. Each free-standing, complete story explores a different theme representative of the author's style. The collection ""Cold Case"": Psychic Jeff Resnick has no expectations when investigating the disappearance of a four-year-old boy, until he confronts the mind responsible. ""An Unconditional Love"": A single mom of a special-needs child learns about sacrifice and the true meaning of love. ""We're So Sorry, Uncle Albert"": Can a family get away with the murder of their rich uncle? ""Love Heals"": A lonely nurse longs for love on the most romantic night of the year. ""Abused"": A daughter's story chronicles a young girl's shattered childhood. ""Prisoner of Love"": The personals may not be the best place to find your true love. ""Blue Christmas"": The holidays can be the loneliest time of the year, but will the magic of the season make this the last blue Christmas for Judi Straub? "
