The Chalk Man was published in January 2018 by Crown Publishing. Reviews were mixed. The Sun said "[Tudor] weaves a complex and captivating story in her first novel.".[2] The Irish Independent said the book "has an intriguing and creepy premise — but ultimately falls apart after a series of improbable, shading to outlandish, plot twists."[1] The book received the 2019 Barry Award for Best First Novel.[3]
