In 1986, Eddie and his friends spend their days biking around their sleepy English village, using chalk men — little stick figures drawn on the ground — as their secret code. But one day, the chalk men lead them to something far more sinister: the body of a young girl. Thirty years later, Eddie is grown up and trying to move on, until a chalk man appears on his doorstep. A warning that the past is not finished with him yet.
Buzzing among readers who love creepy childhood games turned deadly, small-town secrets, and eerie psychological suspense. Perfect for fans of Stephen King’s It, Tana French’s The Secret Place, and Alex North’s The Whisper Man. Chilling viral quote: “The chalk men are back.”
⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ 3.7/5 from 100,000+ Goodreads readers — “A chilling debut — Tudor blends nostalgia with psychological suspense brilliantly.”
