The spine-tingling and absorbing new thriller from Britain's Queen of Creepy
C. J. Tudor's love of writing, especially the dark and macabre, started young. When her peers were reading Judy Blume, she was devouring Stephen King and James Herbert. Over the years she has had a variety of jobs, including trainee reporter, radio scriptwriter, dog walker, voiceover artist, television presenter, copywriter and, now, author. Her novels, The Chalk Man and The Taking of Annie Thorne, were Sunday Times bestsellers and have sold in over forty countries.

Hugely enjoyable and deliciously creepy. I was hooked
from its gripping opening, all the way through its many
twists and turns. Ostensibly about a man searching for his
missing daughter, it's a tale about loss, where nothing is quite
as it seems; and, although you may think you've got it worked
out, C. J. Tudor is always several steps ahead. A brilliant
storyteller. * Alex Michaelides, author of The Silent Patient

C. J. Tudor is fast becoming one of my favourite authors. She
has such a gift for storytelling. Couldn't turn the pages fast
enough * Fiona Cummins, author of The Rattle *
C. J. Tudor's best novel to date. This tale of the lengths
some people will go to to ease their grief was utterly
emotionally believable while still treading at the edges of the
worlds of Stephen King and Dean Koontz. Gripping and
thoroughly entertaining. I can't wait to see what she does next
* Sarah Pinborough *
