The reason this hurts so much is because I've read A Sliver of Darkness, which was a fantastic collection BTW, where in the Author's Note, Tudor discusses this most recent release and what it meant to her. Tudor realistically captures the horrors of a deadly pandemic through depicting a fictional society that cleverly mimics our own. I started off actually despising the story, but somewhere along the way I realized that I was hooked. This book is in the horror apocalypse thriller genre. It did not scare me at all. Everything that happens in this book happens during a pandemic. The pandemic is so different. London-based Buccaneer has been on a roll recently. Last week, its Irvine Welsh drama for ITVX and BritBox International bagged star Dougray Scott a best actor win at the International Emmys, and it is making a pair of shows for Paramount+, Tudor’s The Burning Girls and The Doll Factory. Halcyon, meanwhile, counts Hunters and Disney+’s The Mysterious Benedict Society among its credits.

It's not the writing. Tudor is a fantastic writer and I think she did a great job of creatively revealing what was actually going on in this story. However, with this being said, by the time we got to some big reveals, I couldn't care less. I love books set in cold environments. Not only are the characters up again the virus, but they are also up against the cold, and up against.... (read the book). There is a feeling of desperation running throughout the book. What does it take to survive? What does surviving mean? But even though The Drift is not my favorite Tudor read, I know that more greatness is coming. More stories are heading my way – stories that I will love.Meg is a police officer who has woken up with a bunch of strangers on a cable car suspended over snowy terrain. There is a storm brewing and she and those on the cable car were headed to "The Retreat". They were drugged, their possessions taken and are now wearing the same uniform. Soon Meg realizes that there is a dead man on board, she recognizes him, but keeps it a secret. C. J. Tudor is a British author whose books include The Chalk Man and The Hiding Place (The Taking of Annie Thorne). [1] She was born in Salisbury, England but grew up in Nottingham, where she still lives. There were so many things I did not like about this book but I'll just touch on some of them. You all have read the blurb and know that there are three groups of people, one hanging from a cable car on a mountainside, another in a bus that has crashed on the same mountain and a group at The Retreat itself that is running the whole operation and having problems with the generator and power outages. I want to thank the author C.J. Tudor, the publisher "Random House Publishing - Ballantine" and of course Netgalley for the opportunity to read this special novel and any thoughts or opinions expressed are unbiased and mine alone! During a deadly snowstorm, Hannah awakens to carnage, all mangled metal and shattered glass. Evacuated from a secluded boarding school, her coach careered off the road, trapping her with a handful of survivors.

An exceptional thriller. Original, high-octane plot, jaw-dropping twists . . . A writer at the top of her game." - Claire Douglas I prefer strong female characters, and I especially appreciated that the author made her two female heroines whip-smart, determined, and accomplished. The author’s sly humor is also on display, bringing much needed relief from the tension.
C.J. Tudor does not disappoint, and I loved how she brought everything together. She kept me on my toes while thoroughly invested in the plot. Wowza, Wowza! I can't wait to read what she writes next! Meg, a former policewoman, and her group are stranded in a cable car when the power fails, which leaves them dangling 1000 ft in the air during a raging snowstorm.

There are a lot of characters to keep straight, which is perhaps the book's greatest weakness. But I just kept reading, trusting that it would all come together. And it did. This book definitely explores the grotesque, so be prepared for some very gruesome scenes. If you enjoy zombie thrillers, there’s something for you too!Her favourite films are Ghostbusters and The Lost Boys. Her favourite authors are Stephen King, Michael Marshall and Harlan Coben. Cut to a coach crash. Hannah, a medical student, comes around after a road accident. Though she’s not seriously hurt, some of the other passengers have been killed. The survivors help the wounded and assess their dire situation. They were en route to the Retreat, but its location was kept secret from them. They are all participating in a research project and are without phones. When the snowstorm hits they are completely cut off from the outside world. Hannah realises one of the dead has signs that the virus had got hold of him – he was already dying. If the rescuers know this they may not come at all. Was the crash even an accident…? Colyard, K.W. (4 December 2019). "Start Reading C.J. Tudor's 'The Other People' Right Now". Bustle . Retrieved 25 April 2020. The Drift is a Post-Apocalyptic Thriller from beloved author, C.J. Tudor.
