This is very fresh. It has that 1960s feel to it - a little reckless, a little bizarre, a grab for optimism in the shadow of a doom. In a blind test, I'd never have guessed this was Christie.

CARGO by E. Michael Lewis ★★★★
What gives this horror story an extra shiver factor is how firmly grounded it is in reality. Almost everthinng in the could be explained by the impact of the horrific events in Jonestown. The almost is important. It's the dark crevice where doubt and fear lurk. The gap between what we tell ourselve is possible and what the hairs on the back of our neck believe might be happening.
