Write a short summary of what happens in the radio advert

We hear a man reading out loud from a book. It’s clearly a thriller. In the story, a man sneaks up on a woman and cuts her guts out with a knife. We then hear the reader turn the page in the middle of a sentence. He continues to read out loud, but this time it’s an extract from a cook book: a recipe where you have to fill the belly of a chicken with mediterranean herbs. By combining the sentence from the thriller (“cuts her guts out and”…) with that of the cook book (“... fill the belly with mediterranean herbs”) we create a comical effect, leading to the sales promo: buy two different books on online bookshop Bol.com and get a five euro gift card.
