Summary

Graham is trying his hardest to save his marriage. When his wife, Cressida, invites two new friends over for dinner he offers to cook even though he has no experience with vegan food. Something troubles Graham about the couple, but he can’t quite put his finger on it. He takes a journey into Facebook to find a terrible truth which creates a sinister consequence.

This is a short brooding psychological thriller with a shocking twist!

Amusing little story

An amusing little tale of four rather unpleasant characters, David Morley Hale narrates very well, he makes the humour all the more apparent. The ending was a little predictable but it was still funny, in an evil way.

I received this audiobook free of charge in exchange for my honest and unbiased review.

Funny

I was given a free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

I found this pretty funny. It may be short, but it had a range of emotions, and they all felt real and in character. The ending was a bit predictable, but the book itself was enjoyable.

Going vegan.

This little satire might be short in length but is packed full of character. A dinner party, vegan guests who are the friends of the disagreeable hostess and the poor underdog husband who is doing all of the work. Yes, the ending was predictable, but none the less delicious because of it. The narrator, David Morley Hade, with exaggerated accents and gloriously sardonic reading, perfectly captures the spirit of the story. Only his very audible sharp intakes of breath between some sentences cast a shadow on his otherwise excellent performance.

My thanks to the rights holder for freely gifting me a complimentary copy of A Watched Pot, at my request, via Audiobook Boom. I will certainly be looking out for more works by Mr.Blue.
