THE THREE-DAY AFFAIR
KARDOS, MICHAEL
Will, Jeffrey, and Nolan are lifelong friends. Each have gone their separate ways as adults, living their own lives
while forging their own careers. They have no reason to believe anything extraordinary will befall them. Until one
shocking moment changes everything… Will is a part-time drummer who spends the rest of his time in recording
studios. He has lived a sheltered existence. Then one night Jeffrey attempts to rob a convenience store, drags a
young woman into Will’s car, and shouts a single word: “Drive!” Shaken and confused, Will obeys. Suddenly
three ordinary men find themselves completely out of their element, holding a young girl hostage without the
slightest idea of what to do next. They are already guilty of kidnapping and robbery; it is only a matter of time
before they find out just what else they’re capable of. For these four people, three days will decide their fate.

THREE GOOD THINGS
FRANCIS, WENDY
Ellen McClarety, a recent divorcee, has opened a new bake shop in her small Midwestern town, hoping to turn
her life around, but the past still haunts her—sometimes by showing up on her doorstep. Her younger sister,
Lanie, is a successful divorce attorney with a baby at home. But Lanie is beginning to feel that her perfect life is
not as perfect as it seems. Both women long for the guidance of their mother, who died years ago, but left them
with a wonderful piece of advice: “At the end of every day, you can always think of three good things that
happened.”
