About this listen

A heartwarming tale of office life, homicide and biscuits, which was longlisted for the Bath Novel Award 2017.

Jonathon Fairfax, the world’s most socially awkward hero, works for a giant corporation where he specialises in muttering ‘um’ and tripping over bins.

When he accidentally discovers a colossal corporate conspiracy, it soon becomes clear that someone will do anything to keep it a secret - including murder.

Listen to this audiobook on its own or as a follow-up to The Perpetual Astonishment of Jonathon Fairfax - a best seller that was shortlisted for the Bath Novel Award 2014.

Critic reviews

"It’s funny, it’s daft-yet-relatable, it’s still a nerve-jangly thriller and it moves at a cracking pace. In fact, if you’re stuck in a bit of a reading rut, it’s just the palate cleanser you need.” (Emerald Street)

"This one is even better than the one before. Buy!” (John Lenahan, best-selling author, magician and voice of the toaster in Red Dwarf)

funny story, very well narrated. the plot is exciting enough to keep you gripped and only a little far fetched. characters are good. made me actually laugh out loud a few times.

I am so smitten with these books. Lovely story, fabulous narration. Genuinely funny and utterly charming.
Delighted to see the author is writing a 3rd book. Just wish he'd get a wiggle on. If Finlay doesn't narrate that one too ... well, I will sulk.

More please!

I love this series. Christopher Shevlin is a wonderful writer. The story is beautifully plotted and just hilariously funny. Although I've read them in the wrong order, it doesn't really matter. Highly recommended.

Excellent Series

I loved the mix of social misfit characters. I was hooked on page one, although not what I would usually go for I enjoyed every minute. I seem to have inadvertently started with book 2 so will immediately buy books 1 and 3. I hope the author is busy writing more so I always have another to look forward to. Loved the narration, too. Great job!

Great humour

The second in the series and all the characters are still well observed and the story is fun and surprising. Such a refreshing book and beautifully narrated. Definitely worth a listen

Funny sweet and engaging
