Book Overview
CompWare is in serious trouble after a promised merger falls through, so they do what other businesses have done to bolster their public image: they hire a consulting firm to review and streamline their business practices.But there's something strange about the firm they hire--more specifically, the quirky gentleman who arrives to supervise the project: Mr. Patoff, tall and thin and wearing a bow tie, and with an odd smile that never quite reaches his eyes.In his first interactions, the consultant asks a few inappropriate questions, and generally seems a nuisance. Over time, Patoff gains more power, to the point where he seems to be running the whole company. He enacts arbitrary and invasive changes to office protocol. He places cameras all over the building, making workers paranoid; he calls employees at all hours of the night, visits some of their homes and menaces their families. People who defy the consultant get fired... or worse. They soon realize they're not just fighting for their jobs: They're fighting for their lives.The Consultant is a biting workplace satire, with the horrific touches only Bentley Little could provide.

Be careful on your next retreat and watch out for the snowball globe.

It is my 3rd book by Bentley Little and I want to read all his books. I absolutely love his writing style. Even though I put 5 stars, there were moments I wanted more like during the company’s retreats.
The author’s writing nevertheless keeps me on the edge and I love it!
Also dear reader, you will never look at a snowball globe again the same way you used to.
I read all the books as well, can't wait for more..
