Once upon a time there was a man named Martin.
Martin Reed is thoroughly average in every way. So how has he wound up with such a pathetic existence? Martin has no friends, no lovers, and no respect. Working as a senior accountant at Southern Toilet Supply and still living with his nagging mother, his sole source of excitement is the crime novels he cherishes. So immersed is Martin in these escapes that he fails to notice the crimes going on all around him. When first one, then another, of his coworkers is brutally murdered, Martin is shocked to become the fetching female investigator’s prime suspect. Center stage at last, Martin basks not in the glow of the spotlight, but in the harsh glare of interrogation.

" This book is a "must read" on Audio book. Read by Wayne Knight (also known as Newman from Seinfeld), this book is a fun, quirky, and quick read. "
— Jordan, 2/18/2014" I liked this book it is short but not sweet. About a man who was bullied at school and now at work with a bit of a who done it. A simple quick read. "
— Emma, 2/2/2014" Weird. Just, weird. "
— Ceilidh, 1/27/2014" I "read" this book while commuting. At times I would laugh out loud. Wayne Knight did a great job as narrator. I have never read any of Ms. Slaughter's previous works, but she is now on my list! Quirky and funny but with dark undertones. "
— Kimberly, 1/11/2014" Een goed maar kort boek van Karin Slaughter. Haar "echte" boeken met Sarah Linton of Will Trent in de hoofdrol vind ik veelbeter. "
— Lize, 1/6/2014" Loved it. Mystery, sex, humor. It's like a micro mini skirt, though: where's the rest of it? "
— Dana, 12/29/2013" This wan't what I expected, but I fond myself enjoying a light read. "
— April, 11/12/2013" what a crap!!! "
— Steffi, 11/11/2013" This is a very short, weird little story, just 147 pages. I like her other books, Triptych, Fractured, etc. much, much better. "
— Patricia, 10/26/2013" Ehhh....left something to be desired. Luckily it was an extremely quick read. "
— Traci, 10/15/2013" Nl titel: onbegrepen "
