Synopsis
Meet Martin Sargent.
He hasn't got a girlfriend (not anymore, anyway); he hasn't got a flatmate (see point one) and he definitely hasn't got the gift of tact.
But he has got his mates (against all odds), an office crush and a mum who wants him to welcome Jesus into his life.
But most pressing of all - Martin's got a disciplinary meeting for improper use of work email...
A frank, hilarious and oh-my-god-that's-me look at life and love, all revealed by that unforgiving crucible of modern life...the email account.

Review
He [Vlitos] astutely observes the way that many people communicate these days... Vlitos's writing style has an easy comic touch (NEW STATESMAN)
Paul Vlitos is a witty writer, and this, his first novel is curiously gripping (DAILY TELEGRAPH)
Funny, written in a nice variety of voices, and reads very easily indeed. I'm glad I picked it up. (DAILY SPORT)
Within a couple of hours this book was devoured by two housemates and we can safely say that this book is one that you can't put down, and realistic enough to have you chuckling to yourself (CUB - QUEEN MARY'S UNIVERSITY OF LONDON)
A brilliantly funny satire of the workplace and of emails in particular. Martin Sargent is up for a disciplinary hearing for improper use of his email account, and his trials and tribulations are, in turns, toe-curlingly embarrassing and laugh-out-loud hilarious. (BOOKSELLER)
Book Description
