WHO IS THE BIGGEST VILLAIN IN YOUR OFFICE?

A gripping and incisive psychological drama from the internationally bestselling author of DallerGut Dream Department Store.

Eight people receive a mysterious invitation to participate in a new reality show called Break Room. Immediately, things take a nasty turn when they learn how they were chosen - they were voted in by their own co-workers as the people they'd least like to share a break room with.

As more details about the game are revealed and alliances shift, each contestant comes to realise that surviving the show isn't the greatest challenge . . . it's facing up to who they really are.

Welcome . . . Step into the world of the reality show, Break Room, where every smile hides suspicion, and every word could be a clue.
