Fiction
Click the arrow below to listen to the first episode of this free audio book:
"One Among The Sleepless" is a contemporary fiction novel set in Brighton, England about sex, death and noisy neighbors: a thriller with a rich vein of dark humor that flows from both the narrative and the dialogue of the characters. It's a largely character-driven story; the people and their various shifting relationships compel the plot forward through sometimes subtle, sometimes brutal plot twists towards the final, nail-gnawing climax.

Excellent audiobook. One of my favorites!.. Just and FYI, Episode 30 has an audio problem: the narration is coming out only out of one channel.By: Martin
This is without doubt the best podiobook I have listened to yet and I have listen to loads here already! Cant recommend this one enough. Even the intro's to each chapter are superb, Mike Bennet really uses the medium of podcasting in a way where he knows he is only being heard in your head. I intend to listen to all the Mike Bennet I can, the man is a genius. Some of the moments in this book are so hard to explain to others why they are hilarious, Wayne's bad day with Lucy and then the water pistol later the same day - I should have felt sorry for the man but instead I was laughing my socks off :)By: Jason
Horrifying, funny, scary, dramatic, entertaining...everything. One of the best podcasts out there.
