Madness, conspiracy, aliens, and cosmic terror...just another day at the office.
From the acclaimed author of (dis)Comfort Food, Uncle Leroy's Coffin, and Only Things, comes a new thriller for the era of the cubical dweller and at-home worker.
Worker drone Curtis Henson’s life is a mess. His days are split between his stalled career as a cubicle jockey and his failing marriage. Then the unthinkable happens. Driven to desperation by the seemingly endless routine of the daily grind, Curtis has a revelation that could change everything.
The only problem is, Curtis isn’t sure how much of it is real. Is his workplace at the center of a vast cosmic conspiracy to enslave humanity or is he simply cracking under the strain? Are his corporate masters a sinister alien race or is Curtis finally succumbing to the madness that consumed his parents?
A blackly comedic mashup of the reality-bending novels of Philip K. Dick, the workplace satire The Office, and H.P. Lovecraft’s cosmic horror, HUMAN RESOURCES is a novel that goes off the rails into the unknown.
Are you ready to break free of the daily grind?
