Please Kill My Boss

Julia wants her boss dead. We’ve all been there.

After nine years working for the egotistical, bullying Reg Manning, fantasising about his untimely demise has become Julia’s favourite coping mechanism.

Until one Monday night, Reg drops dead right in front of her.

Julia panics. Briefly wonders if she’s somehow killed him with the power of her mind. And makes a spectacularly bad decision: she hides the body.

But Reg didn't just drop dead. He was murdered. And someone is framing Julia.

In an office where everyone had a reason to hate the boss, the list of suspects is alarmingly long.

With the help of Hot Todd from Design and a murder-obsessed Gen Z intern, Julia must work out which of her colleagues killed Reg before she takes the blame.

Preferably before Thursday’s PowerPoint presentation...

Get this book if you love mysteries and hate your boss. Funny and clever with twists and turns that will keep you guessing until the end! Instead of asking for a raise, just leave this book on your desk.
