This is a collection of three short stories with a common thread of the supernatural. Two of these are "literary" fiction, and the third is more contemporary. You can find this book for purchase at the Kindle store, but I am not allowed to give books away there. Other ebook retailers have this title for free. There will not be a print edition of this book as the cost would be too high to the reader. I plan to include the three stories here in the special print edition of "Love Trascends."
