Bird Box - Josh Malerman

I've just read a scene with a man getting water from a well, He's blindfold but he's done this many times before. It's routine, until he thinks he hears. what? who? how close?

 

Malerman turns that into a scene more heart-thumping than a face-to-face confrontation with the nightmare creature of your choice.

 

This goes straight for where our fears live.
