So, this week I got to listen to the audio recording of #TheTakingofAnnieThorne narrated by the amazing Richard Armitage! So thrilled!!

The thrilling second novel from the author of The Chalk Man, about a teacher with a hidden agenda who returns to settle scores at a school he once attended, only to uncover a darker secret than he could have imagined.

Joe never wanted to come back to Arnhill. After the way things ended with his old gang--the betrayal, the suicide, the murder--and after what happened when his sister went missing, the last thing he wanted to do was return to his hometown. But Joe doesn't have a choice. Because judging by what was done to that poor Morton kid, what happened all those years ago to Joe's sister is happening again. And only Joe knows who is really at fault.

Lying his way into a teaching job at his former high school is the easy part. Facing off with former friends who are none too happy to have him back in town--while avoiding the enemies he's made in the years since--is tougher. But the hardest part of all will be returning to that abandoned mine where it all went wrong and his life changed forever, and finally confronting the shocking, horrifying truth about Arnhill, his sister, and himself. Because for Joe, the worst moment of his life wasn't the day his sister went missing.

It was the day she came back.

With the same virtuosic command of character and pacing she displayed in The Chalk Man, C. J. Tudor has once again crafted an extraordinary novel that brilliantly blends harrowing psychological suspense, a devilishly puzzling mystery, and enough shocks and thrills to satisfy even the most seasoned reader.

@cjtudor satisfy our irrepressible curiosity, please! At the beginning and end of the book, was it really Richard himself, or was his voice a little bit changed technically? And for what purpose was this done?

Antwort an @KetvelinA

It is @RCArmitage all the way through. But the prologue and epilogue are third person and the rest is first person, so it makes sense for these to be read in a different way. Also, Richard is doing a Midlands accent for the character of Joe. Hope this answers the question! x


Ketvelin August@KetvelinA

Yes, partly)) Thank you. But was the change of his voice technically accomplished as well? Because it doesn't sound at all like his own modulation when he's changing voices.



Ketvelin August@KetvelinA

Sorry for the meticulousness, but I just want to understand is it my ears fail me or Richard has reached a completely new level of voice acting or I'm not deaf and technical processing still was involved.



C. J. Tudor@cjtudor

I don't know whether it was treated in post-production, so can't answer that, I'm afraid! x



Ketvelin August@KetvelinA

Eh, we'll have to keep guessing then In any case, thank you very much for your answers and for your wonderful books! And especially for entrusting Richard to read them to us
