Welcome to the world of Clyde-Fred. The teddy bear with morals.The original Clyde-Fred was born in the early 1980's when my grandma mailed to my mother a package containing the ugliest red and orange plaid fabric I had ever seen. Her instructions were for my mom to make my sister and me some pants out of this hideous material. Needless to say, we just laughed.My Mother decided instead to make a teddy bear for my little brother.The name "Clyde-Fred" was given to the bear by my brother, after Clyde, my dad's boss, and Fred, my grandfather.Over the years, our family has grown to adore the little bear. He has been a source of comfort and humor to all of us.My kids have grown to love Clyde-Fred as much as I do, and I sincerely hope that many other children will learn the simple, yet powerful message that our colorful friend, Clyde-fred, has to pass on. After all, the world can always use a little more love.Lani Walling

One year ago, Marta Hughes won a purse-choking sum of money at a local casino. She never returned home. Her body was discovered in a ditch twelve miles from her home; her car was back in her driveway. Linnet Isherwood cannot let her friend's unsolved murder rest. She convinces ex-cop Michael McLaren to return to the work he loves. He sifts through a confusing web of lies, misconceptions and veiled motives. Are anonymous late-night phone calls, a vanished hitchhiker, and a stalker wielding empty beer bottles somehow related to the case? Or maybe the woman he broke off with is seeking revenge.
