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!
In the ninth installment of the popular Mac Faraday Mystery series from best-selling mystery author Lauren Carr, readers embark on a rollercoaster adventure with old friends (including the Lovers in Crime team of Prosecutor Joshua Thornton and Homicide Detective Cameron Gates). Carr also introduces mystery fans to Mac Faraday’s daughter Jessica Faraday and Joshua Thornton’s son Murphy Thornton, who join the team in the race to get the lovebirds to the altar!

"The mystery and suspense kept me captivated, as I traveled from Iraq to the United States and back again. Lauren kept me guessing and on my toes. I never anticipated all the events that would ensue." - Reviewer: Sherry Fundin, Fundinmental
"If you enjoy action and adventure as well as mystery and romance you will find this work is just the thing. Think danger and espionage and you will find a trickle of that danger weaving throughout the story.Carr continues to keep us enthralled with her protagonist, and yet each character is strong enough to stand on his or her own as well." - Leslie Ann Wright, BlogCritics.
"Three Days to Forever is a fast-paced thriller that solidifies Carr's standing as a major force in American fiction." - David Kinchen, HuntingtonNews.net
"I am, bottom line, amazed at the giant step that places Carr comparable to significant authors whose name slips off our tongues like, for instance, Nora Roberts. Watch this author--she's moving quickly to where her goals are headed... Three Days to Forever has to be, in my opinion, the best of her best! Get it!" - Glenda Bixler, Book Readers Heaven
"This has more of spy thriller mystery feel to it. Dealing with terrorists. It is exciting, has humor, lots of action, drama, romance, and mystery. I stayed up till 2:00 am to finish. It is a fast-paced story." - Rhonda Laney, Readalot
"Lauren Carr does a good job of moving the quirky storyline along nicely with an abundance of witty dialogue. And you have no idea who the good guys are and who the bad guys are until the end." - Every Free Chance Book Reviews

It was a long, physically tiring and emotionally exhausting flight back to the United States on a military transport, which was not made for comfort. The short time he was given to pack did not give David time to shower and change out of his desert fatigues.
Colonel Glen Frost barely spoke to David, who had considered his commanding officer a mentor and friend. During the long flight across the ocean, David would steal glances over at the Colonel—when he was not replaying the radio conversation over and over again in his mind.
“Zombie, O’Callaghan. Zombie. Terminate target at will. Wipe that camp off the face of this earth. See you when you arrive safely back home.”
Could I have misunderstood? How could I have mixed up “zombie” and “terminate at will” with “stand-down” and “return to base?”
“Liquid courage?” Colonel Glen Frost held the flask out in front of David’s face.
Grateful for the goodwill gesture, David took the flask, wiped off the mouth of it, and took a large gulp of the scotch. “Thank you, sir.”
“You’re going to need it.” The Colonel pushed the flask back to him. “Just because I’m PO about this whole thing is no reason for you and me to stop being friends. I do consider you a friend, O’Callaghan.”
“I’m still trying to figure out what this thing is,” David said. “I know I’m not imagining—”
“Forget that,” Colonel Frost said. “Forget about what happened out there.”
“That’s what the inquiry is about,” David said. “I need to know what happened.”
“Like they’re going to believe that I told you to stand-down and you heard zombie?” Colonel Frost chuckled.
