It's in that magically-expanding time before Day 1, but after Jack joins CTU. The books follow each other, although I notice that they usually only refer to events in other books by the same author. It must be a nightmare of continuity, because they keep having to work new characters from the show into the past. This one has a mention of Bill, and Morris plays a role.
(Cue Logan: "You played a role, Morris. You played a role.")
It's a bit AU, because it seemed like Jack did not know Morris when he was introduced in Season 5. I could be wrong. I'm not up to that point in my re-watch. The characterization is awesome, so I'm willing to forgive timeline issues. Especially as the show doesn't treat the books as canon, from what I can make out.
