Publisher: Robert Reed Publishers

"January 3rd 1/2," a new novel by Debora Davis, explores universal fantasies and asks the reader to imagine a day free from social responsibility, morals, and laws. What would you do if you had the chance to experience a day that doesn't exist? A "Free Day" on which you could do anything you choose with no consequences? Would you take revenge? Express yourself in some way without restraint? Make real your darkest fantasies? Tempt death? Five people receive the chance to do just that when they find a mysterious invitation under their Christmas tree in the form of a silver ticket embossed with the words "Free Day January 3rd 1/2."

Liz will find out the truth about her husband once and for all.Larry Dean will take the ultimate revenge on the man who stole his livelihood.What starts as a dream day, ends in a nightmare of pain and remorse.
