Been reading Stephen Donaldsons "The Gap Sequence" - I am currently about a 130 pages into the third book in the series and it is just getting steadily more addictive.
Nominally Sci-fi it is seriously dark in places to say the least dealing with rape, psychological trauma and extremes of violence it just keeps building and building interwoven plot lines one over the other to a point where you have no idea whose agenda is whose and what their real intentions are. The one thing you do know is that as soon as you think you have half an idea what someones agenda is it will all be pulled out from underneath you with an entirely plausible but unexpected twist of the plot.
Go and buy this book but be warned it is not easy reading...
