C. J. Tudor
Deadhart, Alaska. Population: 673. Living.
In a small Alaskan town, a boy is found with his throat ripped out and all the blood drained from his body. The inhabitants of Deadhart haven’t seen a killing like this in twenty-five years. But they know who’s responsible: a member of the Colony, an ostracized community of vampyrs living in an old mine settlement deep in the woods.
Detective Barbara Atkins, a specialist in vampyr killings, is called in to officially determine if this is a Colony killing – and authorize a cull. Old suspicions die hard in a down like Deadhart, but Barbara isn’t so sure. Determined to find the truth, she enlists the help of a former Deadhart sheriff, Jenson Tucker, whose investigation into the previous murder almost cost him his life. Since then, Tucker has become a recluse. But he knows the Colony better than anyone.
As the pair delve into the town's history, they uncover secrets darker than they could have imagined. And then another body is found. While the snow thickens and the nights grow longer, a killer stalks Deadhart, and two disparate communities circle one another for blood. Time is running out for Atkins and Tucker to find the truth: Are they hunting a bloodthirsty monster . . . or a twisted psychopath? And which is more dangerous?

Critic Reviews
"Vampires, or "vampyrs," roam the earth—and provoke heated political debate—in this wildly imaginative supernatural thriller from Tudor. . . . This frostbitten procedural is a bloody good time." —Publishers Weekly (starred review)
"Tudor is a masterful storyteller, and here she does some of her finest work, approaching vampire mythology from an exciting new angle and creating some of her most memorable human characters." —Booklist
"C. J. Tudor is getting better and bolder with every novel, and the bar was pretty high to start with. The Gathering is an incredibly exciting novel, tightly plotted and brilliantly tense, with an atmosphere you could eat with a spoon." —Stuart Turton, author of The Seven Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle and The Devil and the Dark Water
"C. J. Tudor is a genius. The Gathering kept me on the edge of my seat to the very last page. A tour de force!" —Ava Glass, author of Alias Emma
"My first vampire book but it definitely won’t be my last! Really enjoyed The Gathering, a chilling and claustrophobic story set in the snowy wilderness of Alaska." —B.A. Paris, author of The Mosquito and Bring Me Back
"So menacing and claustrophobic. Ice cold and darkly bloody. I loved it. Bravo, C.J. Tudor, you are the Queen of Horror." —Louise Swanson, author of End of Story
"Tudor slays with this brilliantly imaginative take on the vampire genre. This genre is tailor made for her. It’s as if it’s her own invention. There’s nothing she can’t turn her hand to. Fangbloodytastic." —John Marrs, author of The One and What Lies Between Us
"A crime thriller with a vampiric twist. What a cracking read and such assured writing. She just gets better and better!" —Sarah Pinborough, author of Behind Her Eyes and Insomnia
"Tudor keeps us engaged with clever characterizations and terrific ratiocination. . . . This is a terrific thriller with a real whodunit and a great twist at the end." —The Globe and Mail
