Critics Review

An exceptional thriller that blew me away with its original, high-octane plot, jaw-dropping twists and characters I cared about. When I wasn't reading The Drift I was thinking about it. A writer at the top of her game
CLAIRE DOUGLAS
A truly terrifying, ice-cold chiller from the master of macabre. C.J. Tudor should be on everyone's must-read list
CHRIS WHITAKER
Chilling . . . Her most complex and terrifying yet. The three intriguing locked-room mysteries in an eerie end-of-the-world setting provide the springboard for an enjoyable, fast-paced and captivating thrill ride. You'll be on tenterhooks throughout as the story builds inexorably to a grand reveal and a shocking finale
Sunday Express
C.J. Tudor is a genre fiction pioneer. With every new book, she manages to achieve what most writers can only dream of, and The Drift is no exception. Taut, action-packed and oh-so-clever, this thrilling rollercoaster of a ride takes the reader on a journey into the frozen unknown
FIONA CUMMINS
Whoa! I raced through this in a couple of days. SO good, SO gripping, SO clever. A runaway train of a book
JANE FALLON
Sublimely executed, this is a dystopian thriller of real class.
Daily Mail
Fast-paced with twists and thrills, this brutally chilling novel will keep you on tenterhooks
Crime Monthly
Atmospheric, with suspense dialled up to the max, and at times heavily claustrophobic, this is a page-turner which flirts heavily with horror and delivers on all counts
Crime Time
A chilling, captivating thrill ride
Sunday Express
Fast-paced atmospheric story

I enjoyed this book. It's a case of what goes around comes around.
A closed room murder mystery, with a struggle for survival and a quest for revenge rolled into one book.
