Publisher's summary
The debut short-story collection from the acclaimed author of The Chalk Man, hailed as “Britain’s female Stephen King” (Daily Mail), featuring eleven bone-chilling and mind-bending tales
“All hail the queen of scream. A Sliver of Darkness is C. J. Tudor at her spine-tingling, nightmare-inducing best. Read it if you dare.”—Chris Whitaker, New York Times bestselling author of We Begin at the End
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.
In “The Lion at the Gate,” a strange piece of graffiti leads to a terrifying encounter for four school friends. In “Final Course,” the world has descended into darkness, but a group of old friends make time for one last dinner party. In “Runaway Blues,” thwarted love, revenge, and something very nasty stowed in a hat box converge. In “Gloria,” a strange girl at a service station endears herself to a coldhearted killer, but can a leopard really change its spots? And in “I’m Not Ted,” a case of mistaken identity has unforeseen fatal consequences.
Riveting, macabre, and explosively original, A Sliver of Darkness is C. J. Tudor at her most wicked and uninhibited.

In 1986, Eddie and his friends are on the verge of adolescence, spending their days biking in search of adventure.

They follow the message, only to find the dead body of a teenage girl. In 2016, Eddie is nursing a drinking problem and trying to forget his past, until one day he gets a letter containing a chalk man — the same one he and his friends saw when they found the body.

It's been said that all great literature boils down to one of two stories—a man takes a journey, or a stranger comes to town. While mystery writers have been successfully using both approaches for generations, there's something undeniably alluring in the nature of a stranger: the uninvited guest, the unacquainted neighbor, the fish out of water. In the newest collection of stories by the Mystery Writers of America, each author weaves a fresh tale surrounding the eerie feeling that comes when a stranger enters our midst, featuring stories by prolific mystery writers.

Solid story collection
I liked this a lot on the whole - like most short story collections, it does vary in quality, but in this case it was easily skewed towards stories I enjoyed. Even my least favorite were still decent. Solid recommend overall, it also gets a good compliment in that I enjoyed it enough to go back and pick up the author's earlier novels that imtersected with some of this material.

Full of fun
For me, Mrs Tudor’s novels have been hit or miss. But this short story collection was fabulous! The stories had varied plots, and some with twists. They had a mix of narrators - some you could emphasize with, and others not so much. Different settings, different styles - what a treat. I highly recommend the audiobook since the stories have a variety of narrators as well as the author reading the introductions to each story.

Not up to her usual standard
The collection of stories felt like the author and her agent were capitalizing on her novel success to sell some old stories that would never have been published otherwise. While the stories were ok, they lacked the imagination and wit of her novels. Echoes of Stephen King resound a little too strongly for me--a woman in an abandoned hotel seeing two children that aren't there, getting drinks from an imaginary bartender, and more similarities to the Shining. Another story has a woman discovering a mysterious way to revitalize broken and dying things and does so with her cat. Two of her novels have King similarities also. Given the author's tone and voice in her writing, and her ability to pull the reader into a scene, I hope for more originality in the plot. The narrators did fine. The author's introduction to each story didn't appeal to me. Describing how the inspiration for the story came about seems a bit self-indulgent. Hopefully, her next work will be a novel, which I will happily buy.

I trying to finish this but it’s not easy
I admit I haven’t finished this book yet but geez what a collection of stale stories. Some lousy Stephen King, Twilight Zone and Creepshow style stories neither scary nor clever. After The Chalk Man her novels just don’t measure up. Too bad. No longer an author I will follow.

Horror stories by CJ Tudor
These tales will probably appeal to horror fans but they weren't for me. The readers do a great job, but it isn't enough to make them as good as Ms Tudor's longer works.
