About this listen
Infused with love, addiction and free-pouring measures of single malt, The Mash House is perfect for fans of Fargo and The Godfather.
Cullrothes, in the Scottish Highlands, where Innes hides a terrible secret from his girlfriend, Alice, a gorgeous, cheating, lying schoolteacher. In the same village, Donald is the aggressive distillery owner, who floods the country with narcotics alongside his single malt; when his son goes missing, he becomes haunted by an anonymous American investor intent on purchasing the Cullrothes Distillery by any means necessary. Schoolgirl Jessie is trying to get the grades to escape to the mainland, while Grandpa counts the days left in his life.
This is a place where mountains are immense and the loch freezes in winter. A place with only one road in and out. With long storms and furious midges and a terrible phone signal. The police are compromised, the journalists are scum and the innocent folk of Cullrothes tangle themselves in a fermenting barrel of suspicion, malice and lies.
The Mash House uses multiple narratives to weave together the parallel lives of individuals in the village. Each fractured by the fears and uncertainty in their own minds.

Good story with unlikeable characters
I really enjoyed this story. However, none of the characters are actually likeable. They are all bad people in some way. Angus King is one of my favourite narrators. He could read a phone book of an instruction manual and I’d enjoy listening to it.

Narrator makes the book
Angus King makes this book enjoyable. Only read it because I’ve ready everything in the genre’s I like that he narrates. The story was pretty good, though I felt the ending was rushed.

What is the point
I’ve listened to this story and at the end I’m left wondering what is the point of it? It’s unlikeable people doing uselessly mean things and for what? It feels like the author grew tired of the whole thing, wanted to stop and never bothered finding an ending.
