Stinkbug

Sinead Stubbins

‘You're a stinkbug and they're worried if they come near you, your stench will get all over them and they won't be able to wash it off.' 
 
When Edith and a select group of employees at Winked advertising agency are sent to Consequi, an elite three-day work retreat in the remote mountains, she sees an opportunity to impress her bosses and dodge an inevitable restructure. 
 
But this is no ordinary corporate retreat. Trapped together in the revamped convent, the threat of mass redundancy looming over them, their phones confiscated and the team-building activities becoming increasingly extreme, the 'work family's' cracks begin to widen – and Edith has a secret that threatens to make her the office outcast: the stinkbug. When Edith realises there's something suspicious about Consequi, she's faced with a decision: conform and shut up, or accept stinkbug status and find out what's really going on. 
 
In this wildly original and deeply unhinged story, Sinéad Stubbins turns her keen but empathetic eye on the lies we tell about ourselves in order to belong. Part anxious millennial fever dream, part searing workplace satire, this corporate gothic novel is perfect for fans of Yellowface, Nightbitch and Such a Fun Age.

Firebrand

Megan Preston Meyer

NO ONE is their authentic self at work 
Currant Keppler has a fresh MBA and her first corporate job: participating in the LATTE Management Rotation Program at Alpine Chalet Coffee Company, the Midwest's second-largest coffee chain. She's fluent in jargon, excited for new challenges, and completely bought in—until she realizes that there's something fishy with her first project. 
I'm in the big leagues now, she tells herself. This is just how the game is played. But when a question of ethics turns into a question of murder, she learns that some people will do anything to succeed – and that NO ONE is their authentic self at work. 
Combining corporate culture, the start-up scene, cabin life, and punny coffee drinks, Firebrand takes a campy, loving look at impostor syndrome, authenticity, and the absurdities of the corporate world.

Pairs With Life

John Taylor

Corbett Thomas, a one-hit wonder back in the 90s, now works as the lead sommelier at Napa Valley's hippest restaurant. Better still, Corbett is only an exam away from becoming one of only 250 Master Sommeliers in the entire world, and finally living the life of stardom and adoration he got a taste for in his youth. 
But the Master Comm "sit" is the hardest exam in the world. And Corbett has an unfortunate knack to self-destruct at the exact wrong moment. 
When billionaire game designer, Brogan Prescott, asks Corbett to consult on a major vineyard acquisition, Corbett sees it as a shot at redemption...until he learns of Brogan's ridiculous vision of a virtual-reality winery. Worse still, Brogan's hiding a secret about the vineyard—one that could threaten to change the face of Napa Valley forever. 
Even if Corbett can get out of his own way long enough to purchase the vineyard first, he'll be faced with the hardest decision of his life: take the fame and fortune he desperately craves, or save the soul of the valley he loves so much.
