Description
It’s human nature to make mistakes. We learn and grow because of them. What we can’t do is go back in time to correct a mistake—that is unless we meet Joseph Vance or his family. When Joe performs Corrections—a gift passed down generation to generation over eight hundred years—people are transported back for a do-over of a wrong decision they made. As a result, lives are changed, usually for the better. But after one Correction goes terribly wrong, Joseph loses what is most dear to him. He must then make a choice, one which will determine whether he will be redeemed or consigned to a life of despair.

A Note From the Publisher
John Hazen, the author of seven acclaimed suspense novels, lives with his wife, Lynn, and dog, Castle. He spends his days writing, playing tennis, playing his clarinet and trying out new recipes in the kitchen. He has adopted the Beatles’ song I’ll Follow the Sun, as his mantra: he grew up in Massachusetts, lived most of his life in New Jersey and now has retired to Florida.

If you could go back and live again but differently, would you? That’s the question posed to many in this entertaining, thought-provoking novel about a family that passes on the ability to let people have a “do-over”.Handled very well by the author, this fantasy doesn’t get weird, but moves sensibly through the generations encouraging the reader think about decisions made and being made.

What a wonderful, magical read. the Correction turned out to be! The story is told through the generations of a family with the gift. of a correction...or a do-over. Please give this book a chance, the writing is a well-written, pulled-together read.. I personally love it.
Paul V, Reviewer
This is equal parts clever and well-written. A slightly different take on the do-over plot, which kept me interested throughout. Recommended.
I really appreciate the free review copy!!
