The Job - Douglas Kennedy

Ned Allen is a brilliant salesman. He knows it's true because everyone says it is. But working as an ad-salesman for a computer magazine - albeit a rising one - isn't exactly glamorous and it's also incredibly high-pressured. So when - in the nineties parlance of management bullshit - Ned is 'downsized', he has to turn to new, rather more morally dubious practices in order to maintain his lifestyle.

Douglas Kennedy's new novel will send a shiver down the spine of anyone who has ever thought they enjoyed the comforts of so-called 'job-security' and it's as thought provoking and thrilling as THE BIG PICTURE.
