Mild panic. Moderate confusion. Maximum satire.

In the hidden corridors of British bureaucracy, one department quietly keeps civilization from crumbling — not through heroics, but through aggressive filing, clipboard diplomacy, and a fierce devotion to Proper Food Etiquette.

When rogue culinary rebels unleash a campaign of gastronomic chaos — from diagonally steeped tea to ketchup on roast lamb — it falls to Mr. Percival J. Penwiddle III, Flavia Blunt, and the mildly disgruntled staff of Department 4C to save tradition from collapse.

Armed with staplers, tactical scones, and a deep-seated fear of unregulated condiments, the Ministry faces underground flavor uprisings, international toast scandals, and the horrifying rise of "Soupception."

Can Penwiddle and his team prevent the collapse of breakfast — and perhaps British society itself — before it's too late?

Full of sharp wit, absurd adventures, and a love letter to tradition both sensible and ridiculous, The Ministry of Mildly Alarming Affairs is a satirical romp for fans of Douglas Adams, Jasper Fforde, and anyone who's ever quietly judged a sandwich.

Perfect for readers who enjoy:
✔️ Quirky British humor
✔️ Satirical takes on bureaucracy and society
✔️ Culinary absurdity and inventive world-building
✔️ Light-hearted dystopian comedy
