Jon Courtenay-Grimwood recommends

Something More Than Night (2021)
Kim Newman
"Something More Than Night is what happens when an encyclopaedic knowledge of film collides with pulp noir and turns Raymond Chandler's already mean streets into something altogether more eldritch and nasty. Classic Kim Newman."

White Rabbit, Red Wolf (2018)
Tom Pollock
"Exceptional. It's funny, bleak and emotionally brutal, and had me permanently on the edge of my seat."

Gradisil (2006)
Adam Roberts
"The king of high-concept SF."
