    About this ebook

    Nina is Dan's wife.

    April is Dan's ex-wife.

    Jenny is a hotel worker in search of a future, and she thinks Dan can give it to her.

    Dan is in his forties and wants something more. His quest to find that "more" will take him away from his wife and toward his ex-wife with Jenny hovering at his side.

    The Year of Dan Palace is the story of one man's mid-life crisis viewed through the lens of the female gaze. It's also the story of a life - and what any of us are willing to risk to live it to the fullest.
