Boy Meets Body Partners In Crime #1

Description

*Boy Meets Body* is two novellas ("Cards on the Table" and "Murder at the Heartbreak Hotel) compiled into a single book. This is the first of five in the Partners in Crime series, all featuring two novellas; one each by Josh Lanyon and Sarah Black. The following is the blurb found on [Goodreads)][1], please note quotation marks around each story title are mine, as are punctuations in brackets, which have been added for clarity. "BOY MEETS BODY #1 in the PARTNERS in CRIME series[.] Two young lives snuffed out, half a century a part, half a continent apart. The men who solve the murders also have to solve riddles in their own lives. Love is never easy. Sometimes, if you're lucky, you can give your life to it. Sometimes, though, if you're not so lucky, you can give your life for it... "Cards on the Table" by Josh Lanyon[.] Fifty years ago a glamorous Hollywood party ended in murder-the only clue a bloody Tarot card. Timothy North is trying to find out what happened that long ago summer's night, but when a Tarot card turns up pinned to his front door, the only person Tim can turn to for help is his ex-lover, Detective Jack Brady. "Murder at the Heartbreak Hotel" by Sarah Black[.] Peter Moon, proprietor of a charming little get-away in the Land of the Midnight Sun, finds himself headed for less comfortable accommodations when he's accused of murder. Then his personal heartbreak showed up, fresh from six months in a Yukon River fish camp, determined to help." Ms Black's [webpage for this book][2] offers a slightly different blurb for her novella, *Murder at the Heartbreak Hotel*: "Peter Moon is the proprietor of The Heartbreak Hotel, a charming little getaway in the Land of the Midnight Sun, popular on the gay travel network. When a hotel guest is murdered, and Peter is implicated, Peter's lover Sebastian comes to help, fresh from six months in a Yukon River Fish Camp. Sebastian is a professional musher, and Peter loves him but he has no interest in living with forty dogs and an outhouse in the Alaskan wilds." Lanyon's [page for this book][3] provides the same blurb as found on Goodreads.
