An up all night thriller that has you racing through the pages.
Adam and Jess have found their house of their dreams, a detached Victorian Manor House that has retained its period features, set in a quiet, historical neighbourhood and all the room their growing family could want.
Yes it’s a doaupper, but it is theirs. The forever home they have dreamed of. But sometimes dreams have a way of turning into nightmares and for Adam and Jess moving into 91 Regency Place is about to shatter their dreams.
As the family begin the arduous task of moving in one of the top bedrooms has a rather dilapidated built in wardrobe that presents itself as a hazard to the younger children so Adam soon sets about ripping it out to make the space safe. What he doesn’t expect is to uncover some incredible wooden panels on the wall behind, and he certainly doesn’t expect to find a very well hidden door built into the panels revealing an extra little room.
It is clear that this room has been undisturbed for years. Inside is an old Welsh dresser, an old armchair and a lot of dust. But the doorway isn’t big enough for the unit to fit through, meaning the hidden wall was built after the furniture was in place.
Why would someone go to so much trouble to build and hide this extra room? It’s not on the floor plans for the house so not even the estate agents knew of its existence or the fact the room dimensions were off.
There is nothing Adam loves more than a good mystery, he is the type of person that likes to know how things work and the why of things, so the discovery of a secret room and a set of locked draws is to much for him to leave.
Inside these locked draws are a collection of several random, unrelated items including an old fashioned mobile phone which to his and wife’s surprise still turns on once charge. Not that it contains anything except a picture so blurry on the tiny screen it’s impossible to tell what it is and the only other thing is a phone number.
Not expecting anything to come of it, they phone the number and leave a voicemail but think no more of it.
Except by doing so they have unwittingly set a series of events off that will change their lives and destroy their dreams.
The other objects Adam found locked in the hidden room soon become an obsession to find out why they have been hidden and locked away, but someone out there doesn’t want Adam digging and they want their items back, no matter the cost.…
This book is so incredibly well written that you cannot help but be sucked into Adam’s obsession as well as becoming fully invested in the Wylie family. I especially fell in love with their ginger cat Steve! I’m a sucker for ginger cats, especially naughty ones!
Full of mystery, intrigue and fast paced, this is definitely a book that keeps you reading well past bedtime.
This book has everything, brilliantly brought to life characters, details that make the story clear images in your head, an intriguing mystery that you need to see solved, where everyone is a suspect so you can’t trust anyone and a plot twist that the best armchair sleuths won’t guess, this book has it all.
If like me this is your first step into his books you are in for a real treat and this definitely won’t be the last book of his I read. If you are already a fan of his work then you will absolutely devour this book. It is definitely a must read!
A massive thank you to the author T.M. Logan, publishers Bonnier Books UK and NetGalley for my digital arc of this fantastic book in exchange for an honest and independent review.

Another brilliant, twisty read from TM Logan.

Adam and Jess have bought their forever home for their family in a prestigious part of town. It’s the perfect place to bring up their three children, as well as home their dog and cat. They move in, ready to begin the next chapter of their lives when Adam finds a hidden room upstairs and makes a huge, terrible mistake.

This book kept me guessing throughout. A lot of characters could have been involved in nefarious activities which had me on my toes!

If you haven’t read any of Tim’s books yet, give them a go. And if you have, you will love this one.

Thank you NetGalley for allowing me to read and review.

You know you're always onto a winner with T. M Logan. His books keep you reading non-stop and this was no exception. Full of tension and mystery, with likeable characters and a plot that makes it hard to put the book down. I totally did not see that ending coming!

A thoroughly enjoyable thriller, I'd definitely recommend it.

I was super excited to read this book as I’ve read all of T.M Logan’s books. I think this one has to be the best Ive read.
Couldn’t put it down. Was totally invested and it psychologically got in my head. Couldn’t stop thinking about it when i wasn’t reading it and was convinced I knew! Which I didn’t!
Can see this a series on tv next! Highly recommend and thanks for allowing me to read it early.

I enjoyed reading this - the pacing was very good, it was a unique premise and the ending took me by surprise! I thought I knew where it was going and I was absolutely wrong, I love being shocked.

I think some characters could have been fleshed out a bit better - particularly Adam's wife, Jess. Her only personality trait seemed to be being a bit of a nag, if she was a more likeable character then it would have packed more of a punch when she was in peril.

Overall I would recommend this as it is an interesting story, and something a bit different. It didn't completely blow me away, but it was definitely a decent read.

This is a terrific thriller, fast-moving and suspenseful. It covers a wide range of issues, including family dynamics, the secrets often hidden behind the facade of a marriage, and the lies we tell each other - and ourselves.

Throughout the story, the author manages to maintain not only a cracking pace, but also to whip up a level of suspicion towards various characters that is most satisfying in a psychological thriller.

The characters are well-drawn and often relatable. Recommended to those looking for a hair-raising read. I give it 3.5 stars.

I was absolutely gripped by TM Logan’s The Catch, but not so much with his others. So I’m pleased to say that his latest is definitely as addictive and twisty as The Catch was! He’s doing what he does best: a mystery, family dynamics, and a high-octane race to a nail-biting conclusion where every thread gets neatly tied up - with a hint of darkness for good measure.
The story reminded me of the real-life case of The Watcher, reported on by journalists and recently filmed for Netflix, but the Nottingham setting here is realistic and there’s nothing supernatural - human nature doesn’t need it!

This was an intriguing thriller which starts when Adam uncovers a secret door in panelling hidden behind a fitted wardrobe in his families new home, the door leads to a small room which includes a dresser which contains a strange selection of items in locked drawers. I admit I thought the items would have rung instant alarm bells however Adam and his wife Jess decide to investigate who the owner may have been which them set in motion a terrifying set of events. There are some fabulous characters in this, many of whom it’s easy to be suspicious about however the guilty party was truly unexpected and offered an excellent twist that I really did not see coming.

I was so excited to be given the chance to read and review this book. An absolute belter! Great storyline that kept me guessing. A real page Turner. 10/10

I couldn’t wait to start this book as I’ve read all of T.M Logan’s books and this did not disappoint and was absolutely brilliant.

The story is all about Jess, Adam’ and their children moving into their new dream house where Adam finds some mysterious items in a secret area of the house. What follows is a fantastic story with so many twists, turns and red herrings and I did not guess any of the outcome correctly which shows just how good this book was.
The setting was brilliant, so gripping, fast paced, tense and really creepy.
An excellent five star book and I cannot wait for the next novel.
Thanks to Netgalley, Bonnier Books UK and T.M Logan for an advanced copy in exchange for an an unbiased and honest review.

Another cracking thriller by Tim Logan. When Adam and Jess move into their dream home with their family they have the expectation that everything will fall into place. But Adam is hiding something from Jess which he hopes he can quickly resolve without her knowledge. On top of this, their dream home soon reveals its own secrets. Will the couple be able to solve the mysteries of their home and be able to live their dream lives or will the dream home turn into a nightmare?
This was such an excellent read which I read in 24 hours, I just could not put it down. I was delighted and shocked by the plot. The characters were so believable and I was rooting for one character throughout the book. A great read which I highly recommend and I hope will be made into a tv series,
Thanks to NetGalley, the author and the publisher for a Kindle copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Adam, Jess, their 3 children, Leah, Callum and Daisy along with the family pets move into their dream house. Situated in an upmarket area in Nottingham the family are delighted despite the amount of work needed on the Victorian residence.

Adam finds a secret room in one of the bedrooms, behind a wardrobe and panelling. As he explores this he discovers some random items in the drawers of an old dresser in the room. He starts off a catalogue of events which spiral out of control as the story progresses.

Well written, original plot and exceptionally rounded characters meant I read this in less than 24 hours and I was never sure what the outcome would be or who would be revealed as the culprit.

Brilliant read and highly recommended.

Loved it! This author’s books have the ability to simultaneously make you unable to stop reading while wishing you could bury the book somewhere deep underground where it can't be found. Compelling and didn’t want it to end!

Amazing! Just everything you'd want from a thriller/ domestic noir. It's been quite a while since I've read a book of this calibre and I loved every second of it. The plot is amazing! It's so original with so many twists and turns. The big reveal had me floored! The characters were well written and humanised. They're complex and just really relatable and likeable. It was impossible not to be invested and hope for the best for them. Its well paced, constantly moving forward and the tension is built so skillfully that I found myself listening to the noises in my own house a little bit more closely as I read through this. I really can't fault it. Definitely a must read!!

As soon as i see this author's name i know its going to be a cracker of a read. As always believable and well written characters. Its starts with what Adam finds and what he does with said items, he is also keeping secrets of his own, i just couldn't help feeling sad for him. Enough characters to keep me wondering who was dodgy? The ending was totally unexpected and the villain was not on my list of suspects! Read this far to quickly and i can see me re-reading again in the future.

My thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for my copy. Outstanding writing, i would give more stars if i could.
