All right, Jesse, last week was such a tragic reminder of the impact of trauma.

What's the story this time around?

A marriage gets rocky as the years go by due to the increasingly bizarre behavior of one of the spouses.

Then, a community grows concerned when a beloved parent goes missing.

And the police have to follow some strange clues to ultimately discover the gruesome truth.

I'm Andy Cassette, and I'm Jesse Prey,

and this is Love Murder.
