Fox

Who is Francis Fox ? A charming English teacher new to the idyllic Langhorne Academy, Fox beguiles many at the elite boarding school, while leaving others wondering why his biography is so enigmatic. When two brothers discover Fox's car half-submerged in a pond in a local nature preserve and body parts strewn about the nearby woods, the entire community begins to ask disturbing questions about Francis Fox and who he might really be.
Written in Joyce Carol Oates's trademark intimate, sweeping style, and interweaving multiple points of view, "Fox" is as profound as it is propulsive, as moving as it is full of mystery.

A spellbinding novel of literary and psychological suspense about the dark secrets that surface after the shocking disappearance of a charismatic, mercurial teacher at an elite boarding school - by the legendary author "who is surely on any shortlist of America's greatest living writers" (The New York Times Magazine)
