The bestselling Queen of Horror turns her hand to VAMPIRES...
A small Alaskan town.
A brutal murder.
Echoes of a killing twenty-five years ago.
An out-of-state detective brought in to assist the sheriff who investigated the original case.
But as the snow thickens and the nights grow longer...are they hunting a twisted psychopath or something even more terrifying?

Industry Reviews
C.J. Tudor is getting better and bolder with every novel, and the bar was pretty high to start with. The Gathering is an incredibly exciting novel, tightly plotted and brilliantly tense, with an atmosphere you could eat with a spoon -- Stuart Turton
A crime thriller with a vampiric twist. What a cracking read and such assured writing. She just gets better and better! -- Sarah Pinborough
CJ Tudor is a genius. The Gathering kept me on the edge of my seat to the very last page. A tour de force! -- Ava Glass
Tudor slays with this brilliantly imaginative take on the vampire genre. This genre is tailor made for her. It's as if it's her own invention. There's nothing she can't turn her hand to. Fangbloodytastic -- John Marrs
My first vampire book but it definitely won't be my last! Really enjoyed The Gathering, a chilling and claustrophobic story set in the snowy wilderness of Alaska -- B.A. Paris
So menacing and claustrophobic. Ice cold and darkly bloody. I loved it. Bravo, C.J. Tudor, you are the Queen of Horror -- Louise Swanson
