Description

Doesn’t everybody want their five seconds of fame?

Daniel North, survivor of a gay pub bombing, wants to share his forgotten story with the world, but he’ll have to settle for millions of viewers in the 18-35 demographic.

Complex Neighbours is the latest ratings smash from billionaire media tycoon, Felix Moldoon. Think Big Brother meets the Hunger Games! To win the one-million-pound prize, contestants must compete in challenges that range from legal waterboarding to inducing projectile vomiting, or a showbiz quiz when it’s a low budget week.

Felix will do anything to ensure high viewing figures, even if that involves murder. As well as controlling the media, he also controls the edit. It is for him to determine who will be crowned the winner, and who will be “executed” from the show, with their lives destroyed forever.

Can Daniel resist the temptation of a younger man to achieve his goal? Will Felix sacrifice his own son for the sake of TV ratings? And just how far is the ultimate Reality TV villain willing to go for the grand prize?

I stopped watching TV a while ago, and never liked reality shows. So this is pretty good for what it is. It's a light read with some humor, and should be enjoyed those seeking a distraction.

Thanks for the free review copy!

Typical and yet felt a lot of emotions while reading this story, I stayed up all night wanting to know what happen and what kind of bomb are going to explode.

This book was funny in a very outside the box way and one I really enjoyed.

It is an odd one to recommend but one I still would.

Thank you for you copy - really appreciated.
