By all appearances Ken Pritchard has achieved it all - loving wife, beautiful children, and a successful career where he has become the first disabled CEO of a bank.

When he receives a call about the decline of Bobby Booker, a childhood friend, the news sends him on a visit that dredges up old wounds and fond memories of his youth.

The story takes us back to their elementary school days when Bobby was a bully to Ken until an odd solution from the school principal changed the course of both of their lives forever.

Ken’s eyes are opened to the impact he had on his old friend, as well as people he never met.

The Friendship Effect is a story about how the human connections we make can have a positive influence, even years after they appear to have run their course.
