The Gathering




The bestselling Queen of Horror turns her hand to VAMPIRES...

A small Alaskan town.
A brutal murder.
Echoes of a killing twenty-five years ago.
An out-of-state detective brought in to assist the sheriff who investigated the original case.
But as the snow thickens and the nights grow longer…are they hunting a twisted psychopath or something even more terrifying?

PRAISE FOR C.J. TUDOR

The wildest thriller of the year. Buckle up

LINWOOD BARCLAY

A truly terrifying, ice-cold chiller from the master of macabre. C.J. Tudor should be on everyone's must-read list

CHRIS WHITAKER

Some writers have it, and some don't. C. J. Tudor has it big time

LEE CHILD

A runaway train of a book

JANE FALLON

C.J. Tudor is getting better and bolder with every novel, and the bar was pretty high to start with. THE GATHERING is an incredibly exciting novel, tightly plotted and brilliantly tense, with an atmosphere you could eat with a spoon

STUART TURTON

CJ Tudor is a genius. The Gathering kept me on the edge of my seat to the very last page. A tour de force!

AVA GLASS

A crime thriller with a vampiric twist. What a cracking read and such assured writing. She just gets better and better!

SARAH PINBOROUGH

A peerless blend of thriller and horror, with darkness and danger pouring from every page. Cuts right to the heart of the evil some are capable of, and the consequences that come crashing down. Powered through it in twenty-four hours

ROBERT RUTHERFORD

So menacing and claustrophobic. Ice cold and darkly bloody. I loved it. Bravo, C.J. Tudor, you are the Queen of Horror

LOUISE SWANSON

My first vampire book but it definitely won't be my last! Really enjoyed The Gathering, a chilling and claustrophobic story set in the snowy wilderness of Alaska

B.A. PARIS

Tudor slays with this brilliantly imaginative take on the vampire genre. This genre is tailor made for her. It's as if it’s her own invention. There's nothing she can't turn her hand to. Fangbloodytastic
