About this ebook

A London Lads Story

Ever wanted to spy secretly on other people’s lives?

Ken doesn’t have a choice: his student summer job is manning the CCTV screens for the new central London shopping mall. But instead of spotting criminals or vandals, he becomes fascinated by a cute waiter from the local bistro who sneaks out to the backyard for his break—and plays sexy to the camera.

Is he an old friend, or just an anonymous exhibitionist? Should Ken be excited by this naughty peepshow, or will people think he’s a voyeuristic pervert? Poor Ken’s confused and thrilled in turn. It’s like living in one of the movies he’s studying at university. He knows the man can’t see him, yet Ken feels a connection of some kind. It all encourages Ken to continue with his guilt-ridden Waiter Watch.

Ken bears the suspense as long as he can, until a chance meeting and an abortive blind date provide the explanation to the secret assignations. But will this guide Ken to a real-life chance of romance?

Ratings and reviews

A quick, enjoyable story. Peepshow is the first book I've read by Clare London and I enjoyed it a lot. It's book 4 in the London Lads series but you don't have to have read the others first; I haven't and I didn't feel like I was missing anything. Ken's summer job is watching the CCTV (closed circuit TV) in a shopping center in the evening. The job is boring and he tries all kind of things to keep his mind on his job. One night he sees a cute waiter on his break at the back of the restaurant where he's taking his break. Ken swears the guy winked at him. Peepshow is a short novella coming in at 63 pages but it kept my interest. I couldn't wait to find out the story behind the waiter seeming to flirt with the CCTV. Did he know he was being watched? This was a really fun story and I certainly would read more stories by this author. An advanced copy of this book was provided to me but my review was voluntary and not influenced by the author. ***Review will be posted to Xtreme-Delusions dot com on 8/14/17***
