"C.J. Tudor's debut novel, The Chalk Man, introduced a major new talent in British crime writing. The Hiding Place, her second novel, is even better. . . . Tudor has a tight fast-paced writing style that keeps you riveted to the page. . . . With two books, Tudor is already on a par with Mo Hayder or early Minette Walters. Don't miss this one." —The Globe and Mail

"Tudor maintains a tone of creeping dread throughout the book, of something lingering always in the background, coyly hiding its face while whispering promises of very bad things to come. In the last quarter, however, she goes for broke with outright horror, giving readers an effective jolt of adrenaline that will carry them all the way to the terriyfing conclusion. Readers won't know what hit them. Tudor came out swinging with The Chalk Man, but this one puts her firmly on the map. Not to be missed." —Kirkus Reviews

"Tudor has crafted another fantastic horror-tinged thriller . . . in the vein of John Connolly and Brendan Duffy." —Booklist

"Some writers have it, and some don't. C.J. Tudor has it big time—The Hiding Place is terrific in every way." —Lee Child

"Dark, gothic and utterly compelling, The Hiding Place pulls off a rare combination—an atmosphere of unsettling evil along with richly nuanced characterisation." —JP Delaney, internationally bestselling author of The Girl Before

"[An] absolutely brilliant thriller." —Winnipeg Free Press

"[The Hiding Place] confirms Tudor as Britain's female Stephen King. There is a creeping dread on every page and, as you start a new chapter, a dark shadow over your shoulder. Tudor's punk prose style and her great eye for menace make this a book no one should read at night." —Daily Mail (UK)
 
"There is no sign of second-album syndrome: the mix of grotty provincial realism and amateur cold-case sleuthing works just as well here." —The Sunday Times (UK)
 
"[The Hiding Place] shows that [Tudor's] excellent The Chalk Man was no one-off in matching Stephen King for creepiness." —Sunday Express (UK)
 
"Spine-tingling." —Sunday Post (UK)

"With The Hiding Place, C.J. Tudor has proven that she is a true master at creating perfectly dark, highly propulsive and tightly coiled mysteries that are utterly impossible to put down. From page one, the reader is pulled in with a gathering sense of dread, and taken on an addictive, thrilling ride to the very last page." —Aimee Molloy, New York Times bestselling author of The Perfect Mother
 
"Gripping and dark, The Hiding Place descends like its very own mine shaft, getting creepier the further you go. You'll race to the finish." —Roz Nay, internationally bestselling author of Our Little Secret
 
"Razor-sharp writing and masterful plotting drive this dark story about a small town, buried secrets and ghosts from the past. Witty and compelling all at once, The Hiding Place is a must read page-turner!" —Wendy Walker, bestselling author of All Is Not Forgotten
 
"Delicious in every way. A deliciously creepy story, deliciously told. . . . If you like Tana French, you will love, love, love C.J. Tudor." —Alma Katsu, author of The Hunger
