Joe Thorne returns to his home town of Arnhill the one place he never wanted to be back as a teacher.His sister Annie had disappeared when Joe was a kid and even though she did come back things were never the same. After getting an email that things are happening in Arnhill again Joe decides to go back to finally get answers as to what happened all those years ago.
The hiding place by CJ Tudor is a creepy horror story as well as a mystery.I overall enjoyed the mystery aspect more than the horror story but it was difficult to put down once started. An interesting premise and characters made this an entertaining read
I would like to thank Crown Publishing & NetGalley for providing an ARC of this book in exchange for my honest and fair review.

I signed up for a cheap thriller and that’s what I got.

Well written, easy read - but honestly just a Stephen King ripoff in terms of the plot.
The Chalk Man was one of my favourite books of last year, but this one was too unoriginal. The voice and characters were great but the plot was just too similar to a certain King novel to look past it.

This was a disturbing book. Sometimes it's less about external factors (though, they DO matter) but looking at oneself can reveal a lot more than what meets the eye. I really loved the narrative voice in this one, it had it's own power over the reader and it constructed the story in a way that made it all the more interesting to unravel and see how the events of this novel would unfold.

I could not put this down. There was way too much that I needed to know. But I will say I do not like the main character. He’s like Jack Reacher with his crappy attitude. As I was reading it, I definitely felt that the author is way too big of a fan of Stephen King. And then I noticed she called him out in her acknowledgments. So if you like King, this is your book. Definitely had Pet Sematary vibes.
