The Chalk Man

The Chalk Man centers around a small town in the U.K. that experienced a brutal crime in the 1980s. It is now 2006, and Edward Adams is a schoolteacher living in the same house in which he grew up. One day he gets a mysterious note containing a stick figure and a pice of chalk, which causes memories of his childhood and the chalk figures he drew with his friends to resurface. Who is bringing the chalk men back after all these years? Has the time finally come for the secrets of the past to be exposed?
Tudor's novel is a psychological suspense/thriller novel somewhat in the style of Gone Girl and Lianne Moriarty's books. Perspective shifts between 1986 and 2006, with bits and pieces of information revealed gradually as the story progresses. It is a fairly quick read, and enjoyable for fans of this genre.
