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)

A wonderfully lighthearted, but in parts gripping book. Fabulous characters and perfectly narrated. A very welcome escape from all the gloom and doom.

this second installment is as good as the first. I loved it, I think becouse I see so much of jhonnathens inability to deal with other people as I do in my self.

This book is utterly delightful. I thoroughly enjoyed it and its predecessor and am now going to listen to both again.

Jonathan Fairfax is the quintessentially English antihero. Sweet and awkward but somehow seems to get things done. This is a rollicking story full of breathtaking twists and turns and lots of laugh out-loud moments. Excellently narrated as well.

Great fun!
