Survival can be murder . . .

During a deadly snowstorm, Hannah awakens to carnage, all mangled metal and shattered glass. Evacuated from a secluded boarding school, her coach careered off the road, trapping her with a handful of survivors.

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.

Carter is gazing out of the window of an isolated ski chalet that he and his companions call home. As their generator begins to waver in the storm, the threat of something lurking in the chalet's depths looms larger.

Outside, the storm rages. Inside one group, a killer lurks.

But which one?

And who will make it out alive?

The Drift Reviews

An exceptional thriller that blew me away with its original, high-octane plot, jaw-dropping twists and characters I cared about. When I wasn't reading The Drift I was thinking about it. A writer at the top of her game -- CLAIRE DOUGLAS
A truly terrifying, ice-cold chiller from the master of macabre. C.J. Tudor should be on everyone's must-read list -- CHRIS WHITAKER
Chilling . . . Her most complex and terrifying yet. The three intriguing locked-room mysteries in an eerie end-of-the-world setting provide the springboard for an enjoyable, fast-paced and captivating thrill ride. You'll be on tenterhooks throughout as the story builds inexorably to a grand reveal and a shocking finale * Sunday Express *
C.J. Tudor is a genre fiction pioneer. With every new book, she manages to achieve what most writers can only dream of, and The Drift is no exception. Taut, action-packed and oh-so-clever, this thrilling rollercoaster of a ride takes the reader on a journey into the frozen unknown * FIONA CUMMINS *
Whoa! I raced through this in a couple of days. SO good, SO gripping, SO clever. A runaway train of a book -- JANE FALLON
Sublimely executed, this is a dystopian thriller of real class. * Daily Mail *
Fast-paced with twists and thrills, this brutally chilling novel will keep you on tenterhooks * Crime Monthly *
Atmospheric, with suspense dialled up to the max, and at times heavily claustrophobic, this is a page-turner which flirts heavily with horror and delivers on all counts * Crime Time *
Fast-paced atmospheric story * Candis *
Tudor has a lot of scary, horror-tinged fun * Observer *
Without fail, CJ delivers every single time. The Drift is a tense, nail biting thriller that's smart, gripping and brilliantly twisty. Faultless. -- JOHN MARRS
Absolutely raced through it...An action-packed and chilling horror thriller that's like Station Eleven re-crafted by John Carpenter -- MARK EDWARDS
Wow! Very clever, mysterious and thrilling with twists and turns that will smack you in the face like many evil snowballs * SUSI HOLLIDAY *
Heart-poundingly mysterious, breathtakingly twisty, and emotive like a sucker-punch to the chest. The Drift is unputdownable! * STEPH BROADRIBB *
In this tour de force from Tudor (The Burning Girls), a postapocalyptic thriller, a haven called the Retreat, which has been constructed for a select few in the wake of a devastating new plague, proves to be not much of a haven. Some of those in residence at the mountainside facility begin to disappear, even as vital supplies go missing and power outages increase, leading up to the discovery of a body floating in the recreational pool. Meanwhile, a cable car transporting a group to the Retreat is stranded mid-journey; its occupants, including Meg, a former homicide cop, are stunned to find they're trapped with a corpse, whom Meg recognizes. And a second group also faces a threat to their lives; Hannah Grant has been evacuated from a boarding school, but the bus she's in crashes, possibly not by accident, trapping her and several others. Tudor shifts among the three situations, teasing a common link, and gradually ratchets up the pressure on his characters as they try to preserve their humanity while surviving. This is a masterpiece of its kind. * PUBLISHERS WEEKLY [starred review] *
