'Charlie Small is a DJ on a local radio station. He’s good at what he does and unimpressed by those who aren’t. He doesn’t like the station manager, and the feeling is mutual. Charlie doesn’t have much regard for the station’s owner, Hamilton Knox, either—and the DJ knows something his boss would rather he didn’t. Still, it’s Christmas Day, a time for goodwill and celebration. A fellow can have a drink or three at Christmas, surely. And for the imaginative person in search of a good time, there’s more than one use for a radio studio. The lovely Hollie Dale, Charlie’s producer, just wants things to run smoothly. She likes her job and would prefer to hold on to it, but can she keep Charlie on the leash? It could turn out to be an interesting day. In this novel, a radio DJ comes to work drunk on Christmas and sets off a chain of events that changes the lives of everyone at the radio station.'

Desperate for the money Harvey agrees, but when he delves into a side of the movie industry he's never seen before his priorities have to change!'
