It’s paperback publication day in the US for award-winning author, C.J. Tudor. Her gripping thriller, The Hiding Place, is published today by Penguin Random House / Ballantine Books.
It was published in hardback in the UK as The Taking of Annie Thorne by Penguin Random House / Michael Joseph (February 2019).
The Hiding Place is about a man who returns home to settle old scores – and uncovers a secret darker than he could have imagined.
Joe never wanted to come back to Arnhill. After the way things ended with his old gang – the betrayal, the suicide – and what happened when his sister went missing, the last thing he wanted to do was return to his hometown. But Joe doesn’t have a choice, not after a chilling email surfaces in his inbox: I know what happened to your sister. It’s happening again…
Lying his way into a teaching job at his former high school is the easy part. Facing off with onetime friends who aren’t too happy to have him back in town – while avoiding the enemies he’s made in the years since – is tougher. But the hardest part of all will be returning to the abandoned mine where his life changed forever, and finally confronting the horrifying truth about Arnhill, his sister, and himself. Because for Joe, the worst moment of his life wasn’t the day his sister went missing…
It was the day she came back.
