The Traveller - A novel by Garrett Addison

If you're sick of formulaic plots, stereotypical characters, predictable
endings and wanna-be fiction, then you may well be in luck.  'The Traveller'
is a lighter than dark (but not light) story of revenge.
Sometimes to get the measure of your life you just need a break from being
yourself.

A family man struggling in his pursuit of a work/life balance embarks on yet
another trip at the whims of his tyrannical bitch of a boss.  But on this
trip he is a world apart from his usual self.  Suddenly confident, capable
and unafraid of his manager, reclaiming his life becomes less about
corporate advancement and satisfying his ego than outright revenge on his
boss.  With nothing but success in his wake and seemingly limitless
potential at his disposal, being coerced to work with his nemesis in a
remote corner of the world provides the opportunity for not just a
confrontation, but a final solution to what he sees as the bane of his life.
Succeed or fail, either way this trip will be the making of him or the end
of him.

Sometimes to get the measure of your life you just need a break from being
yourself ... because nothing lasts forever.
And no, it's not an autobiography!
