The Chalk Man is an impressive ,gripping psychological debut thriller by C.J. Tudor
12 year old Eddie , Hoppo , Fat Gav, Metal Mickey and Nicky were enjoying a lazy summer when Eddie meets the Chalk Man for the first time while saving a teenage girl. The Chalk Man gives Eddie an idea about creating a secret code among friends using chalk where each friend has a special color chalk so that everybody knows who the message is from. This creates a lot of fun until the chalk symbols lead them to find a dismembered body. Now 30 years later when Eddie receives another letter with a stick figure drawn in chalk , he realizes the deadly game has started all over again.
Powerful writing , interesting characters , intriguing suspense , lots of twists and turns makes this book a compelling read . I cannot recommend it enough .
Many thanks to Crown Publishing & NetGalley for providing an ARC of this book in exchange for my honest and fair review.
