Foe by Iain Reid

If Franz Kafka and M. Night Shyamalan decided to write a book together, Foe would be the result. As creepy and chilling as his excellent 2016 debut I’m Thinking of Ending Things, Foe is a true mind-bender. Reid builds suspense slowly and reveals answers even more slowly, which is sure to frustrate readers looking for one simple answer and reward readers looking to draw a few conclusions of their own. Warning: rapid page-turning may result in paper cuts.
