With its acid edge and wicked humor, Jeff Davis's rapid fire depiction of bureaucracy gone wild digs underneath the fingernails of the typical blue collar worker, satirizing both modern-day relationships and business life. Specifically, if we can't stand our jobs and families, live for the day to escape!

Luckless in love and trapped in a dead-end office job, Jack Snaggler thinks his fortune is about to change when he meets a drop-dead gorgeous brunette named Paradise at a local bar. But when a shady fast food chef goes missing and coworkers start disappearing, Jack finds himself framed for murder. If he wants to stay alive long enough to see Paradise again, he'll first need to escape a conspiracy, that at each turn, involves almost everyone he knows.

Part dysfunctional love interest, part corporate mindset, and part 60's cool. The road to paradise has never been so tainted or hilarious.

Living under the umbrella of a criminal conspiracy and politically incorrect world are Ed Shoemaker, a disgruntled office worker conspiring to off his wife and flee to Fiji; Eileen Klump, a cleaning lady in the throes of menopause who suffers from periodic mental breakdowns between intermittent stays at the local mental facility; along with Lance Sheppard, a would-be entrepreneur who makes his living the good old fashioned way: disability fraud.

Regardless of the premise, the book continually punctures the fabric of what's simply funny with a pervasive shadow of underlying truth.

Wedged neck-deep in the chaos, Jack Snaggler fights to stay afloat in a murky pool of corrupt businessmen, trigger-happy feds, sleazy seaside hotel rooms, and incompetent crooks, all the while stomping for the pursuit of true love and happiness.

Escapist entertainment and a classic roasting of Middle America, this book is for anyone who has one of those days where the kids just scribbled crayon all over the wall, traffic is bumper to bumper, the boss has you under a microscope, everything is going wrong, and that little voice in the back of your head is screaming, "ENOUGH!" Take the first exit ramp off the interstate to the nearest airport and disappear to some deserted island where they'll never find you.

"Pinches a nerve in both business stiffs and romantics alike... a great read!"
~ Euro Travel Addict ~

"If you're still green around the ears, consider this a crash course in the madness of corporate life, not to mention the romantic bumbling we all experience in life. Great reading and a feel good novel."
~ Glen Lock ~

"For those of us with friends and loved ones who are just a bit off. I walked around all day smiling to myself. Recommended reading!"
~ Ed Cardole, Fanatic Reviews ~

"The characters are colorful and at times, equally as unstable. Tarantino would be licking his chops at the prospects of putting such offbeat characters on the big screen. Cecile, a curvy blonde alcoholic who lures men back to a seaside hotel room where an old geezer, code name Nibbles, films every intimate move with a camcoder to make a buck selling videos for street profit . Mika, a flirtatious bar date and Neo-Nazi sympathizer. Not to mention Bob Wetterman who suffers from recurring nightmares and an insatiable love for Rosa Cruz, an illegal alien working as a front desk receptionist who Wetterman fears will be deported to Mexico. Add to the mix Harriet Puck, a former pinup model who worked the cathouses in the Bronx in her prime before she got arrested for solicitation; Ed Shoemaker's brazen wife who has all the charm of an anemic frog; not to mention Nick Crowe, a shifty fast food chef and computer geek who flips burgers and cleans toilets on Sundays for time and a half.
