    About this audiobook

    Charles Paris, an out-of-work actor, takes a star gig as a forklift driver in a Delmoleen Company corporate video. Something about Delmoleen is deeply troubling to Charles. That “happy family” facade may be just that. Mockery, jealousy, lust, envy, they all seem to be pervasive. Still, the work is easy and the money is good; it's even fun learning to manipulate a forklift. But it's a responsibility too, as Charles soon discovers: a forklift can be made into a potent murder weapon.

      I very much enjoyed Simon Jones' reading of this book. Charles Parris is always a nice companion for a little while.
    • 4/5
      Another rollicking, good story and based around another form of the acting career. This time, we are in the area of corporate events. Charles is employed to play a fork lift truck driver with a line of dialogue to deliver. Naturally, Mr Paris cannot turn up without someone coming to an unfortunate end.Charles Paris does what he does: he bumbles his way to a solution whilst his private life falls further through the floor and his drink problem becomes ever more apparent.
