About this listen
A gripping thriller about a man’s quest for the daughter no one else believes is still alive, from the acclaimed author of The Chalk Man and The Hiding Place.
An ID Book Club selection
"C. J. Tudor is terrific. I can’t wait to see what she does next." (Harlan Coben, number one New York Times best-selling author)
Q: Why are you called the Other People?
A: We are people just like you. People to whom terrible things have happened. We’ve found solace not in forgiveness or forgetting. But in helping each other find justice.
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 the painful events from his past now dredged to the surface.
Q: What sort of justice?
A: That depends on the individual. But our ethos is a punishment that fits the crime.
Fran and her daughter, Alice, also put in a lot of miles on the road. Not searching. Running. Because Fran knows what really happened to Gabe’s daughter. She knows who is responsible. And she knows what they will do if they ever catch up to her and Alice.
Q: Can I request to have someone killed?
A: If your Request is acceptable, and unless there are exceptional circumstances, we fulfill all Requests.

Thanks to some quick thinking, he averts a major tragedy and is hailed as a hero, but not all the attention focused on him is positive.

One weekend, while Andrew Mason was on a fishing trip, his wife, Brie, vanished without a trace. Most everyone assumed Andy had got away with murder—it’s always the husband, isn’t it?—but the police could never build a strong case against him. For a while, Andy hit rock bottom—he drank too much to numb the pain, was abandoned by all his friends save one, nearly lost his business, and became a pariah in the place he once called home.

What the critics say
"Hugely enjoyable and deliciously creepy...I was hooked from its gripping opening, all the way through its many twists and turns. You may think you’ve got it worked out, but C. J. Tudor is always several steps ahead. She is a brilliant storyteller." (Alex Michaelides, New York Times best-selling author of The Silent Patient)
"The Other People is a creepy, intense novel that drew me right in and never let go. C. J. Tudor’s books keep getting better and better, and this one won’t let you stop reading until the very last page!" (Samantha Downing, author of the international best seller My Lovely Wife)
"C. J. Tudor has done it again.... A mesmerizingly chilling and atmospheric page-turner." (J. P. Delaney, New York Times best-selling author of The Girl Before)

Confusing
If it weren’t for the glorious voice of Richard Armitage, I might not have tried to slog through this rather confusing story. You really do need to keep notes in order to keep events and characters’ actions clear. The protagonist, Gabe, was very relatable in his grief and haunting search for his daughter and the ending was great. C.J. Tudor’s novels are quite dark but strangely compelling.

not something I would usually read
This story captivated me from the opening scene right through to the end.
I don’t give five stars away very easily And this book is well deserved.
I’m usually very good at guessing who did it, this one I had no clue!

Interesting twist
I enjoyed this novel with interesting twists. It maybe a little too connected with the story line but the author kept it interesting. Enjoyed the narrators. I will definitely check out future novels.
