A taut, psychological mind-bender from the bestselling author of I´m Thinking of Ending Things.

We don´t get visitors. Not out here. We never have.

In Iain Reid´s second haunting, philosophical puzzle of a novel, set in the near-future, Junior and Henrietta live a comfortable, solitary life on their farm, far from the city lights, but in close quarters with each other. One day, a stranger from the city arrives with alarming news: Junior has been randomly selected to travel far away from the farm...very far away. The most unusual part? Arrangements have already been made so that when he leaves, Henrietta won´t have a chance to miss him, because she won´t be left alone-not even for a moment. Henrietta will have company. Familiar company.

Told in Reid´s sharp and evocative style, Foe examines the nature of domestic relationships, self-determination, and what it means to be (or not to be) a person. An eerily entrancing page-turner, it churns with unease and suspense from the first words to its shocking finale.

"Foe is a tale of implacably mounting peril that feels all the more terrifying for being told in such a quiet, elegantly stripped-down voice. Iain Reid knows how to do ´ominous´ as well as anyone I´ve ever read." -Scott Smith, author of The Ruins and A Simple Plan
