Summary

Two women quarantined together. A world falling into chaos.

When a virus sweeps across the globe, Ash and Jack must each face their fears. Married and isolated in one small apartment, each woman grows restless, claustrophobic, and paranoid.

As the horror outside their door ramps up to apocalyptic levels, inside Jack is slowly unraveling. She shuts herself away and fears everything. Fears the virus has crawled its way inside, down her throat, into the lining of her stomach. Ash is afraid, too - afraid of what her increasingly erratic wife will do to her.

In a pandemic none of us are ready for, should we fear the outside world...or what's waiting within?

From the author who brought you stories of literary horror and weird in Kitchen Sink comes Spencer Hamilton's debut novel, The Fear.

Brilliant

This was a really interesting book that flagged some major topics of the year. We've seen some really poor books come out that have used Covid19 in them but Spencer really does well with this book. The Fear is a really suspenseful phycological thriller or horror that shows a gay couple deal with a past trauma, paranoia and trying to survive the real life pandemic and isolation. It really tests their relationship which a lot of people will really relate to. I myself had to isolate with my wife and 2 children who are 4 and 6 for 14days so I really understand the strains. The Cardigan man was a really interesting character but sometimes I was bored of just reading the name haha that was my only dislike in the book. Only because I'd not long read The Stand, and N0S4A2 and if you've read them you'll understand. Also not a fan of reading on a Kindle so that's altered my experience. But all in all I'm really looking forward to more work by Spencer
