FINDERS KEEPERS
Read by Susan Ericksen (Bill Weideman, Director)
Growing up in a magnificent Charleston home, Jessie Rowland wants for nothing. Her rich, indulgent father has filled her room with expensive toys, but her frantically over-protective mother keeps her from having friends and never lets her out of her sight. As she grows into adulthood, her family's stifling possessiveness feeds her feelings of loss and isolation and fuels terrible nightmares from which she wakes screaming, night after night.
At nineteen, she makes her escape to Washington, D. C., where no one knows her and where, as assistant to a prominent Texas senator, she is soon swept into a whirlwind marriage to his handsome son. But as the Senator's career collapses in scandal, her marriage turns ugly and abusive, triggering again her strange dreams of lost happiness.
YESTERDAY
Read by Laural Merlington (Sandra Burr, Director; Melissa Coates, Engineer)
When rich, spoiled Callie Parker was a little girl, her father "adopted" three children as her playmates. Parker Manor became the new home of Bode Jessup, Callie's idol and "big brother," and of Brie and Sela, two girls from poor families who thrived in their new surroundings.
Now, years later, Callie lies in a coma on the eve of what was to have been her lavish society wedding. Bode, now a lawyer, Brie, an FBI agent, and the much-married Sela had returned to celebrate, but in the aftermath of a terrible accident they will discover the shocking truth about their family. Their cherished yesterdays are gone, and a dark secret threatens to tear them apart.
