Klappentext zu „The Chalk Man “
The Chalk Man is OUT NOW . . .
IF YOU ONLY READ ONE BOOK THIS YEAR MAKE IT THIS ONE. SOME GAMES ONLY END IN ONE WAY . . . 'There are shades of Stephen King when the reality bends into the sinister, and a deliciously creepy finale' Daily Mail
'A tense gripper with a leave-the-lights-on shock ending' Sunday Times
'Completely engrossing. Reminiscent of those unsettling Stephen King stories of childhood' John Boyne author of The Boy In The Striped Pyjamas
We all have fears we hide from. But in the end they will find us . . .
---------------------
None of us ever agreed on the exact beginning.
Was it when we started drawing the chalk figures, or when they started to appear on their own?
Was it the terrible accident?
Or when they found the first body?
