"Workplace burnout, the great outdoors and a 7-inch-tall protagonist! Oh, and lots of cheese. Brie-lliant!" - Anon E. Mouse.

Hector has been assigned a new job role in the Cheese Distribution Team at Vermin City Council. Life doesn't get much better for a mouse than this - lots of cheese, friendly colleagues and the great outdoors!

However, Hector quickly discovers things are not quite as they seem. Behind a veneer of respectability and productivity lies a management team that has lost its way. The ruthless focus on output and targets is to the detriment of Hector's colleagues and customers. Hector must tread very caerphilly indeed!

This is Hector's story of bad cheese puns, burnout and the challenges of the modern workplace on our mental health and wellbeing. Hector believes that no matter how small and defeated you may feel, it is always important to find a way to stand up for what you believe is right...

Inspired by the author's own experiences of occupational burnout, the story of these relatable rodent characters makes the perfect gift for anyone in the public or private sector who is simply trying to do a good job under very challenging conditions. It also helps if you are partial to a nibble of cheese...
