You think you know everything about your life.

Long-married couple Junior and Henrietta live a quiet, solitary life on their farm, where they work at the local feed mill and raise chickens. Their lives are simple, straightforward, uncomplicated.

Until everything you think you know collapses.

Until the day a stranger arrives at their door with alarming news: Junior has been chosen to take an extraordinary journey, a journey across both time and distance, while Hen remains at home. Junior will be gone for years. But Hen won't be left alone.

Who can you trust if you can't even trust yourself?

As the time for his departure draws nearer, Junior finds himself questioning everything about his life - even whether it's really his life at all.

Eerily entrancing, Foe churns with unease and suspense from the first words to its shocking finale. Perfect for fans of Humans, Westworld and Black Mirror, Foe is a book you will never forget. Contemporary Fiction Genre Fiction

A brief novel written in the best of sci-fi traditions; the plot is layered and revealed ingeniously and with deftness. What really makes it stand out is the perfect pace of transformation inside the arc of the novel, delivered with utter mastery by both author and narrator - seldom do the two mesh so well, seldom does mere timbre and tonality of voice convey so much meaning.

Existentialist Sci-fi at its best
