Easy Meat Summary

Easy Meat by Rachel Trezise

It's another long day chopping beef carcasses for former reality TV star and Iron Man contender, Caleb Jenkins. His world unravelled when his parents' carpet business went bust last year, yet another casualty of the financial crisis. He's now trying to manage the mental health of his conspiracy-theorist brother while paying a mortgage and keeping a roof over his parents' heads. Caleb's own complicated personal life has imploded along with his impossible credit score. And in the rear view mirror politicians of all persuasions are promising him real change. Caleb is on the edge.
