Review
Wonderfully creepy - like a cold blade on the back of your neck (LEE CHILD)
The Chalk Man works, it's a lively and entertaining read . . . Tudor's got talent (The Times)
This assured debut is very much in the Stephen King vein - creepy with plenty of menace (The Guardian)
Hot damn C. J. Tudor's The Chalk Man is good. Very Stephen King-esque (Ruth Ware)
一九八六年，艾迪还是青少年，和一群好友们成天骑着脚踏车到处找刺激，粉笔人是他们的暗号，因为当时他们用粉笔写下讯息传达给其他人，某一天，他们如往常寻着粉笔留下的讯息，没想到却找到了一个被肢解的尸体……
二零一六年，艾迪已是成人，离开了家乡，以为自己也离开了那个他不愿想起的过去，直到某天，他收到了一封信，信里面只有一个粉笔人的图像，他心想应该是某人无聊的恶作剧吧，但却收到好友中的某个已经过世的消息，艾迪才知道得要去找出那天究竟发生了什么事才能获得救赎。
It was only meant to be a game . . .
None of us ever agreed on the exact beginning.
Was it when we started drawing the chalk figures, or when they started to appear on their own?
Was it the terrible accident?
Or when they found the first body?
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 writer, dog walker, voiceover artist, television presenter, copywriter and, now, author.
Her first novel, The Chalk Man, was a Sunday Times bestseller and has sold in over thirty countries. The Taking of Annie Thorne is her second novel.
