'Twas the Night Before Labor Day

Just when Jocelyn believes she has a grip on her job, the publisher throws a task in her path that proves to be wicked near impossible without the help of a friend, if she can find one.

The work she's editing for her absent father's apologist strikes chords Jocelyn would prefer to remain silent. The mad scientist reveals his mother's savory past. Steel proves as reliable as lightning for jump-starting the disheartened. But in the case of one public servant, absence does not make the heart grow funder.
