How far would you go to keep a secret at work? Would you kill for it?
I used to enjoy my job. I was good at it and felt fulfilled. I also used to enjoy spending time with the people I worked with. They say you spend more time with your work colleagues than you do with your family members, but that was fine by me because I made two very good friends at the office. I also allowed myself to get a little too close to my boss, but I soon realised that was a mistake.
Unfortunately, it was too late by then, and as my personal and professional lives quickly blurred into one, that was when everything changed.
My workplace became the scene for plotting, revenge and murder, but none of us were cut out for things like that. We were just three colleagues who became friends before things went too far. But there was no going back from what we did. We could only hope that we would get away with it. But not all of us would.
Great plot!!

The premise of The Colleagues was really strong, and I especially liked how cleverly the protagonist was written. He is portrayed in such a way that you genuinely despise him, which made the whole revenge element even more satisfying. There’s something very addictive about reading a book where you’re desperate to see someone get what’s coming to them.
That being said, I did feel like it dragged in a few places, and for me, that’s where it lost a star. There were moments where I wanted the pace to tighten up a little and push things forward quicker.
But overall, this was a solid and enjoyable read, especially if you love revenge plots, unlikeable characters, and that delicious feeling of watching secrets start to rot under the surface.
A good thriller with a revenge plot
