In 1986, Eddie and his friends are just kids on the verge of adolescence. They spend their days biking around their sleepy English village and looking for any taste of excitement they can get. The chalk men are their secret code: little chalk stick figures they leave for one another as messages only they can understand. But then a mysterious chalk man leads them right to a dismembered body, and nothing is ever the same.
This book had a slow start for me as it kept switching back and forth from 1986 to 2016. It has a very creepy, complex plot that is very suspenseful and kept me guessing until the last page. The book has a feel of 'Stand By Me' by Stephen King but add in the chalk figures and the evil they represent. The characters were very well-drawn and intriguing. The author is very talented and I am anxiously awaiting her next book. I would highly recommend this book to those who love psychological thrillers.
