About this ebook
‘One of the boldest thriller writers working today’ TESS GERRITSEN
‘Her characters, plot, and pacing are unrivalled’ MICHAEL CONNELLY
__________________________________
A darkly comic tale about Mr Less-Than-Average in an average world from the No. 1 bestselling author of the Will Trent and Grant County series.
Martin Reed, a crime fiction fanatic, is the office joke at Southern Toilet Supply. Stuck in a dead-end job and living with his cranky mother, he's bullied by colleagues, shunned by women, and tormented by his arch enemy who is now his supervisor.
Until one morning, Martin arrives at work to find the police investigating a brutal murder. A co-worker's body has been found in a ditch, and all evidence points to Martin—especially since he can't, or won't, provide an alibi.
When a second victim is found in the company bathroom, things really conspire against Martin. His only hope is the beautiful and sympathetic Detective Anther Albada, but even she's beginning to doubt his innocence. Could Martin be guilty? Or is he just misunderstood?
