Book Description

In this latest Mac Faraday Mystery from best-selling mystery author Lauren Carr, readers will embark on a rollercoaster adventure with old friends (including the Lovers in Crime team of Prosecutor Joshua Thornton and Homicide Detective Cameron Gates), but also meet new ones as Mac Faraday’s daughter Jessica Faraday and Joshua Thornton’s son Murphy Thornton join the team in the race to get the love birds to the altar!

With three days left to the year, Deep Creek Lake is hopping with holiday vacationers and wedding guests pouring into the Spencer Inn for Mac Faraday and Archie Monday’s huge wedding ceremony which is being touted as the social event of the year.

But droopy flowers and guests who failed to RSVP are the least of Mac’s and Archie’s problems when a professional hit squad hits Spencer Manor to send the groom, Joshua Thornton, Archie’s mother, and Gnarly running for their lives.

With time running out to the big day, Mac Faraday and Spencer’s small police force have to sort through the clues to figure out not only who has been targeted for assassination, but also who is determined to stop everything … FOREVER!

 

My Review

I received a free copy of this book for an honest review.

This is the first Mac Faraday novel I’ve read but it definitely stands on its own. That’s not to say I won’t go back and read the previous ones. I like Lauren Carr’s writing style. It’s easy to follow and she doesn’t get bogged down with lengthy descriptions. The dialogue is especially enjoyable. 

There are a lot of characters in Three Days to Forever so there is a Cast of Characters listed at the beginning. I thought that was a great idea even though I only had to refer to it once or twice. I like Mac Faraday and his fiancee, Archie Monday. They’re celebrities whose wedding is going to be the event of the year. The pre-wedding week is a disaster, including everything from a murder to a hair mishap, but they take it all in stride (for the most part). Archie’s “disasters” tickled me.

Several of the characters were unbelievably talented at survival and assassination skills but it made for a good story. Mac definitely has some interesting friends!

My favorite character has to be Archie’s mother, Agnes. She’s 70, stubborn, and capable of keeping up with the big boys. On top of that, she’s good at putting Mac in his place. What a woman!

I definitely recommend Three Days to Forever. If you like mystery, intrigue, and action, it’s one you don’t want to miss.
