Story
Driving home one night, stuck behind a rusty old car, Gabe sees a little girl’s face appear in its rear window. She mouths one word: Daddy. It’s his five-year-old daughter, Izzy. He never sees her again. Three years later, Gabe spends his days and nights traveling up and down the highway, searching for the car that took his daughter, refusing to give up hope, even though most people believe she’s dead. When the car that he saw escape with his little girl is found abandoned with a body inside, Gabe must confront not just the day Izzy disappeared but painful events from his past.

When a well-known British TV historian, Marmaduke Godolphin, is found murdered in the canals of Venice during carnival, stabbed by a stiletto blade, the Venetian police are eager to have the case solved and cleared up within a day—murder is bad for tourism!

These dusty documents may contain previously unknown information about the assassination of the murderer, Lorenzino de' Medici, 500 years previously.

Time slips. Doomsday scenarios. Killer butterflies. C. J. Tudor's novels are widely acclaimed for their dark, twisty suspense plots, but with A Sliver of Darkness, she pulls us even further into her dizzying imagination. Riveting, macabre, and explosively original, A Sliver of Darkness is C. J. Tudor at her most wicked and uninhibited.

Loved everything about this book

Written by: Peter Swanson
Publisher's Summary
Three ordinary people risk everything for a chance at redemption in this audacious, utterly gripping novel of catastrophe and survival at the end of the world, from the acclaimed author of The Chalk Man.
“The wildest thriller of the year is three thrillers in one. Buckle up.”—Linwood Barclay
FINALIST FOR THE ITW THRILLER AWARD • AN ESQUIRE BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR
Hannah awakens to carnage, all mangled metal and shattered glass. After she was evacuated from a secluded boarding school during a snowstorm, her coach careered off the road, trapping her with a handful of survivors. They’ll need to work together to escape—with their sanity and secrets intact.
Meg awakens to a gentle rocking. She’s in a cable car stranded high above snowy mountains, with five strangers and no memory of how they got on board. They are heading to a place known only as “The Retreat,” but as the temperature drops and tensions mount, Meg realizes they may not all make it there alive.
Carter is gazing out the window of an isolated ski chalet that he and his companions call home. As their generator begins to waver in the storm, something hiding in the chalet’s depths threatens to escape, and their fragile bonds will be tested when the power finally fails—for good.
The imminent dangers faced by Hannah, Meg, and Carter are each one part of the puzzle. Lurking in their shadows is an even greater danger—one with the power to consume all of humanity.
What the critics say
“Each of the nested stories features a murder, among other pulpy nastiness, but it’s the intricate way the narratives lock together that provides the most satisfying surprise. Tudor may be the queen of British crime fiction, but she’s gunning for the horror throne now.”—Esquire
“[A] tour de force . . . This is a masterpiece of its kind.”—Publishers Weekly (starred review)
“A truly terrifying, ice-cold chiller from the master of macabre . . . C. J. Tudor should be on everyone’s must-read list.”—Chris Whitaker

I became more invested with each chapter .
I was surprised at how much I was invested with all of the characters. Yes, you certainly had to concentrate and I even listened twice to some chapters. However, I was fascinated by the story and Richard Armitage always adds such creative passion to all of his narrations.
Can’t wait for the next book by this author and this narrator.

Overwhelming
This novel was very hard to follow. There were far too many characters and it was very hard to remember who was where and what parts they were playing in the plot. The timing of events was played with and by the time the reader caught on it just felt ridiculous. The plot had also been done before in various ways so there were no surprises there. The author has done better so this was a disappointment.

Disappointed!
C.J is one of my favourite new authors, but this was let down for me. Zombie Virus tales are old hat and expected better!! Too many characters for me. and I spent most of the book trying to sort out who was who and what was going on! I must be stupid, so was glad when it all got explained to me at the end!! Did not like anyone in it either, everyone was a mess, angry or mad. The lady who read Hannah was fine, but Megs voice sounded like she was recovering from a cold and had an catch in her throat that I found very annoying!! Richard Armitage saved day with his excellent tone and inflection.:))
I look forward to C.J's next book -----
