Loved it!

Absolutely loved Barbara's character and also Tuckers. Really interesting back stories going on here.I can see this becoming a film or TV series. Alex Borstein would be anazing playing the protagonist. Also an open ended finish making way for a series of books. Can't wait for the next one. Great work CJ Tudor.

Reimagining society for vampires

I’m not a massive vampire fan but I love this author’s story telling. This one doesn’t disappoint!

Imagine society with vampires and humans living together. Then imagine what would happen when history, cultures and bad behaviours invade that tenuous harmony. In comes a very uncool Detective into a very cold Alaskan town to work out who’s human and who’s vampire and who’s committed the murders. Will there be a cull of the vampire colony????

What a wonderfully creative mind CJ Tudor has. She takes you to another world that feels both fantastical and familiar. She creates characters that the reader can trust to do the job she wants them to in the story. Adding humour into the sub-script for the Detective is right on the money and builds this character to perfection. The misunderstanding and misogyny in both humans and vampires offer a (sadly) familiar framework as the story intensifies and keeps up guessing until the very last sentence!

The narrator brings this story to life in the best possible way.

Excellent

Really enjoyed listening to this.
The story was dark & creepy. Enough to keep me listening every day.
The narrator was good.
The atmosphere of the town & inhabitants was fab. Could just imagine it.

.

I love c.j Tudor but did not think that this is their usual calibre. Although very listenable, this is not on par with the other books.
Saying that… I will buy the sequel if there is one!

Got its teeth stuck in me and wouldn’t let go!

I’ve loved every CJ Tudor book I’ve read so far, and I think this might be my favourite of hers. She’s able to make such interesting worlds and I love her genre mashups. She’s quickly becoming the queen of the horror/thriller/fantasy genre. This is a must-read/listen if you’ve liked Tudor’s other books!

Best yet from CJ Tudor

Great story and narration.

Love all her books, this one feels a bit like a Stephen King.

Well written

Quite interesting

Nice change on the vampire genre, well written and good narrator, leaves it open to a sequel or at the least tales in the same universe
