Born into a world of colorless isolation, young Rayle is twelve before ever stepping foot outside of the massive, stone-white Compound in which he has spent every waking moment either alone or in the silent, emotionless company of his alien Handler. Implanted in the language comprehension center of his brain soon after birth, the boy serves the Dovin, creatures who swiftly overthrew the human species three generations earlier. Rayle is a Tarshee, a Translator, whose role is to translate mental communications from his Dovin Handler into verbal messages for the surviving human population whose daily lives are governed by the policies and protocols of their alien overlords.

More than 85% of the Earth's population has been lost during the brutal brawn-over-brain sixty-eight day Immersion triggered following the sudden appearance of the two enormous Dovin spacecraft. Masters of energy manipulation, the aliens turned off every light, every computer, every engine, every cell phone. Planes fell from the sky, and the world turned dark and cold. Then, as suddenly as they had darkened, selected lights and devices were rekindled, and The Restoration began.

Free Day follows the life of Rayle, a young Tarshee whose only contact with his own species comes on the one day each week when he is allowed to venture outside of the Compound. Naive and desperate for human companionship, the teenager is welcomed by many, including the beautiful Tess and her charismatic boyfriend, Bradden. But some of Rayle's new human friends have hidden motives for befriending the young Tarshee, artfully manipulating the teen in hopes of using him as the ultimate weapon in the human revolt to overthrow against the alien invaders.

In the end, Free Day is the story of the power of human friendship and love entangled with ambition and manipulation, all colliding within a teenage boy who, in seeking to counter the isolation and loneliness of servitude in the world of a cold and silent species, seeks to return independence and freedom to the human world.
