Team PlayerTeam Player explores the world of work in the 21st Century. The story is set in an uncomfortably close future where the world is run by homicidal marketing managers who kill for love, company, and the almighty promotion. "Aside from the talking brain cells and the rampaging neutrinos...." says Mr. Mitchell, "...the angry Italian ghosts and the Bolshevik computers--and the thirty naked pagan women who save the universe with help from a man who thinks he's a tree--aside from all that: this story could actually take place in any global IT company headquarter.

Lovingly detailed, Mitchell uses a series of scenes, emails and vignettes to lead the reader spellbound and helpless with incredulous laughter. His characterization is deep, yet the book itself is easily read. Off-beat, darkly humorous and all-too-realistic, Team Player is a truly great read.
