Driving home one night, Gabe sees the face of a little girl he knows in the rear window of the car in front.

She mouths one word - 'Daddy'.

He never sees his five-year-old daughter, Izzy, again.

The police believe she's dead. But three years later, Gabe still drives the roads, searching for the car that took Izzy, never giving up hope . . .

Fran and her daughter, Alice, aren't searching - but running. Always one step ahead of the people who want to hurt them.

Because Fran knows the truth about Gabe's daughter - and she knows what those chasing her and Alice will do if they ever catch them . . .

—— Will Dean, bestselling author of Red Snow

The Other People is a creepy, intense novel that drew me right in and never let go. C. J. Tudor's books keep getting better and better, and this one won't let you stop reading until the very last page!

—— Samantha Downing, author of My Lovely Wife

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

Her books have the ability to simultaneously make you unable to stop reading while wishing you could bury the book somewhere deep underground where it can't be found anymore. Compelling and haunting

—— Sunday Express

An intense novel that gets right to the heart of what it means to love and to grieve. Intriguing, dramatic and heart-breaking

—— Woman & Home

A father's desperate search for his vanished daughter provides the beating heart of this complex thriller, which is suffused with loss, longing and vengeance. Touches of the supernatural bring an extra dimension to the spine-tingling thrills

—— Sunday Mirror

A darkly compelling tale of justice, revenge and the darkness lurking at the edges of everyday life - with an utterly propulsive plot that makes it very, very hard to put down

—— T. M. Logan, bestselling author of The Holiday

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

It's rare to read something so downright terrifying but C.J. Tudor manages it time and again. The Other People grabs you by the throat and keeps on squeezing till the very last page. Clever. Original. Brilliant

—— Chris Whitaker

Fabulous

—— Paul Burke, author of The Burning Men

I adored The Other People. I was absolutely gripped from start to finish. Deliciously dark, with realistic characters that you simultaneously root for, then recoil from

—— Caz Frear

Excellent. A clever, tense and touching novel

—— Literary Review

Sets the bar high for every other thriller this year

—— John Marrs

Diabolically clever and propulsive as a rollercoaster. If you like twisty thrillers that leave you guessing till the very last page, this is a must-read

—— Alma Katsu, author of The Hunger and The Deep

Another black fist of doom, smashing into the feeble world . . . loved it!

—— Max Wesolowski

Such intricate and enthralling storytelling. Evocative and creepy

This book is chilling. It's the type of book you need to read with the lights on and the doors locked but it's so gripping you won't regret the mild night terrors

A chilling, atmospheric tale of justice, revenge, and the darkness lurking on the fringes of society

—— Daily Express

Vivid characterisation, lots of mystery as well as a twisting plot, it makes for a gripping page turner

—— NB Magazine

The chilling new novel by the bestselling author of The Chalk Man is an absolute page-turner. We'll just say the author isn't referred to as the 'Queen of Creepy' for nothing

—— That's Life

Complex thriller which is suffused with loss, longing and vengeance. Touches of the supernatural add to the spine-tingling thrills

A novel with a formidable emotional pull

—— Financial Times

C.J. Tudor is mastering the suspense/horror genre . . . It's quietly disconcerting, completely relatable and shows you that humans have a wonderfully dark side

Britain's female Stephen King

—— Woman

Wonderfully gripping and doubt-inducing

—— Woman & Home

Sisters echoes Brontë's Wuthering Heights not only in its gothic elements and sombre descriptions of English landscapes but also in the idea of doomed love, love which becomes an omnipotent, harmful power... Sisters is chilling and unrestful in a way many horror stories aren't, the world of the novel itself a disturbing and anxious place.

—— Elizaveta Kolesova , Upcoming

An absorbing tale of sibling love and envy.

—— Citizen Femme

It's hard to deny the uncanny thrill generated by Johnson's blend of horror, nature writing and magical realism... As dazzling as a photographer's flash.

—— Anthony Cummins , Literary Review

Held me rapt until the very end

—— Lucy Diamond

I didn't want to put it down

—— Katherine Webb

A beautiful and intriguing page-turner

—— Dinah Jefferies

Rich and atmospheric
