A review by rcy
This Plague of Souls by Mike McCormack

mysterious reflective

3.0

A man who feels like he doesn’t fit in his own life returns home to an empty house after a long absence and wonders where his family is. Someone he doesn’t know wants to discuss a global benevolent illegal operation and his personal mythology. I enjoyed the writing but didn’t love the ambiguity. As the main character says, “Keep talking in riddles like this and I will be out of here in two minutes.”
