Description
Fluke by James Herbert is a haunting and unusual tale that blends elements of horror with a poignant exploration of identity and reincarnation.
The story follows a mongrel dog who roams the city streets, driven by an insatiable hunger and an inexplicable need to hunt. Yet, the dog is more than just an animal. Deep within its consciousness lies the memory of a past life, one that torments him with flashes of his former self—a man. As the dog struggles to make sense of these fragmented memories, it embarks on a journey of self-discovery, grappling with the truth of who he once was and what he is now.
Herbert masterfully weaves themes of reincarnation, fate, and the animal instinct, creating a story that is both unsettling and emotionally compelling. Fluke is a tale of transformation, loss, and the search for meaning, told through the eyes of an unlikely and tragic protagonist.
