About this audiobook
A heart-warming 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 bestseller that was shortlisted for the Bath Novel Award 2014.
"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 (bestselling author, magician and voice of the toaster in Red Dwarf)

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Delightful!! Quirky and just hugely enjoyable! A really lovely listen!
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Fabulous characters who are cartoonishly extreme but strangely relatable, in a great story which is brilliantly told. Love the narrator as he makes the characters come to life so well and manages to illustrate the way they are through the way he delivers their dialogue.
If you like Bunny McGarry et al from Ciamh McDonnell’s expanded Dublin Trilogy then Jonathon Fairfax is for you. If you’ve never heard of Bunny McGarry then you should remedy that without delay.
