Book description
Ever been offered a promotion that seems too good to be true? You know
- the sort they'd be insane to be offering to someone like you. The kind
where you snap their arm off to accept, then wonder why all your
long-serving colleagues look secretly relieved, as if they're off some
strange and unpleasant hook … It's the kind of trick that deeply
sinister companies like J. W. Wells & Co. pull all the time.
Especially with employees who are too busy mooning over the office
intern to think about what they're getting into. And it's why, right
about now, Paul Carpenter is wishing he'd paid much less attention to
the gorgeous Melze, and rather more to a little bit of job description
small-print referring to 'pest' control … Tom Holt is the author of
such comic fantasy classics as: Expecting Someone Taller, Who's Afraid
of Beowulf?, Flying Dutch, Ye Gods!, Overtime, Here Comes the Sun,
Grailblazers, Faust Among Equals, Odds and Gods, Djinn Rummy, My Hero,
Paint Your Dragon and Open Sesame
