About this listen

'Packs a punch . . . You'll definitely see your colleagues in a different light after reading this' THE EXPRESS

WHO IS THE BIGGEST VILLAIN IN YOUR OFFICE?

A gripping and incisive psychological drama from the internationally bestselling author of DallerGut Dream Department Store.

Eight unsuspecting people receive an invitation to participate in a mysterious new reality show called Break Room. But what starts as an opportunity to find fame is quickly revealed to be something far more unsettling when they learn how they were chosen - they were voted in by their own co-workers as the people they'd least like to share a break room with.

But there's another twist. Among them is an imposter - a mole planted by the show's producers and the only way to win the prize money is to uncover the saboteur before time runs out.

Labelled as 'villains', the participants are left to grapple with the incredibly alarming realisation that their actions might be perceived differently by others and one moment of kindness might see them branded as the office creep. As alliances shift and paranoia festers, each contestant comes to realise surviving the show isn't the greatest challenge . . . it's facing up to who they are.

Welcome . . . Step into the world of the reality show, Break Room, where every smile hides suspicion, and every word could be a clue.

I didn't like how the narrator made the dialogue into a thick asian accent, I felt like there was no need for that as it was hard to follow. but the story and everything else was perfect. would prefer to read it as it was hard to catch up with the audio. wasn't clear where it started and where it ended.
