Another cracking story from TM Logan. A mums worst nightmare. The mother goes to pick her daughter up from Uni for the Christmas break, and she isn’t there and hasn’t been for over a month, where is she. The daughter falls in love with a man who is not who she thinks he is. A twist and turn thriller to find the daughter, who can be trusted, can old relationships be rekindled, it keeps you guessing until the end.

T.M. Logan belongs to that rare breed of contemporary fiction writers who manage to polish and re-polish the nuts and bolts of their craft anew with each new novel: settings (reassuringly familiar British workplaces and homes), characters (financially comfortable, often middle-aged parents with their unspoken insecurities and worries) and plots (everyday events spiralling out of control). With The Daughter, T.M. Logan is once more in fine form. His main character this time is loving mother and new empty-nester Lauren, who cannot wait to find out how her daughter Evie’s first university term went. But when Lauren travels to her daughter’s halls of residence, Evie has disappeared without trace, plunging Lauren into a nightmarish journey to uncover the truth …. Expertly executed, this novel can be simultaneously enjoyed by new T.M. Logan readers or devoured by his longstanding readership – I know into which category I fall! My thanks go to NetGalley and to the publishers for the ARC that I was gifted and that allowed me to read this suspenseful thriller ahead of publication date in return for this review.

Amazing thriller. As a fan of TM Logan this book is tense, twisty and gripping. A must read for all thriller fans!

Evie has just started her law degree at Queen Anne’s university. It’s the Christmas break so Lauren, her mother, has arrived to take her back home. Only she is not there having dropped out of her course earlier. With the help of a security man who provides her with phone number she begins the desperate search for her daughter who she has by all accounts a strange relationship with.

Through the perspectives of Evie and Lauren we see how their relationship has fractured: Lauren, who got pregnant at nineteen and was forced to drop out of her degree, appears to be overly protective of her daughter for fear of ruining her life. Tagging along is Evie’s brother Lucas who is wise beyond his years.

The two team up with Ruth, another mother of a missing daughter, but is she all that she appears to be? And why is there a BMW following them? As the trio drive through London on the hunt for Evie and Cassie, they embark on a dangerous journey which will uncover a web of lies and revenge.

TM Logan once again hits the mark with this tale of manipulation, isolation and grooming. The pages literally turn themselves and still we are treated to a twist that I never saw coming. This is a well written piece. Does he produce anything that is not? There is plenty of suspense and tension as the time ticks down.



Thank you NetGalley for the opportunity to read this ahead of publication – A real treat.

Gripped me from the very start and didn't let up until I fell asleep mid page. Such a great author and yet another fantastic read.

I loved this book, the story had my invested from page 1 and I really enjoyed the multiple points of views, a great read with so many twists your head will hurt. It’s one you can’t put down and I would definitely recommend if you like domestic thrillers

Totally unpredictable; what a ride. T M Logan has delivered a fast paced thriller with so many twists and turns, it literally sets your heart racing. I’ve enjoyed other books by Logan, but I think this is the best. Such a. Simple premise, a mother goes to pick up her daughter from university, but she’s not there. What’s happened? This is a book that once started is difficult to put down. I was totally wrapped up in the drama and my only disappointment was when I finished the story. This is a first rate, fast paced and skilfully plotted take that’s absorbing. Loved it.

Thank you to Netgalley for allowing me to read this book in return for an honest review. Wow! This is definitely my favourite T.M. Logan book by far. I absolutely loved it and flew through it so fast as I had to know the outcome. Fast paced, non stop action and plenty of shocking twists. I really liked the characters especially Lauren, who was so fierce and determined not to give up on her daughter. A brilliant edge of your seat thriller which I highly recommend. 5 stars

Crippling Angst…
A desperate and breathless race against time in this edgy, unexpected and tension mounting mystery from this accomplished author. As Lauren arrives to collect her daughter from her university halls, she is flabbergasted when a stranger opens the door to her daughter’s room. The truth is that her daughter, Evie, is nowhere to be found and has not been seen for weeks. So, where on earth is she? With a propulsive plot, unravelling at the rate of knots as the search for Evie begins, and a stellar cast of credible characters the author maintains a mounting sense of tension and crippling angst throughout to denouement. Gripping, compulsive and compelling.

Wow, what a book!! It was addictive, chilling and mind- blowing; a real page turner that kept me on the edge of my seat throughout each chapter! I had so many questions in relation to what happened to Evie!

I like this authors writing style T.M Logan always leave you guessing and eagerly turning the pages!

The characters were well written I could empathise with Lauren and the lengths she went to find her daughter, Evie. What an ending oh my goodness I was speechless didn’t see that coming at all!

I’d highly highly recommend this book another cracking book by T.M Logan!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ stars

Couldn't put this down, I was on the look out for a good thriller and this was it.

Fly by the seats of your pants as your follow Lauren on her quest to uncover what really happened to her daughter. The police aren't taking Evie's disappearance too seriously, but Lauren knows something isn't right.

This book goes down some very dark holes, with some big twists (the final one, I did see coming, something didn't sit right with me in an earlier scene and I was happy to be proves right!)

If you've enjoyed TM Logan's earlier books, you'll devour this one!

Thanks to netgalley for the opportunity to review this book, this is my honest opinion.

Wow, this had me gripped!! I’ve read lots of TM Logan books and enjoyed them all, and this was no exception. It really kept me on the edge of my seat guessing what was going to come next.

Thankyou to net galley and the publisher for giving me the chance to read this novel and to the author for yet again another amazing book .

TM Logan doing what he does best, scaring the pants off parents while asking the question: How far would you go to save your child? I’ve read and loved all of Tim’s books so far and The Daughter is no exception. I found the teaming up of mother and young son different and refreshing. I can’t wait to see what comes next!

Thank you Netgalley for this ARC.

This book starts with a bang, throwing the hook of the story straight in your face!

🥜In a nutshell...

At first, Lauren thinks she must have the wrong room, But she soon realises the truth: Evie's not there. She hasn't been there for weeks. So where is she?

✈️I read this on my journey to the UK last week, it's the perfect holiday read, fast paced, gripping and easy to read.

The perfect solution to a book slump, I'd deffo recommend if you want a book you can tank in one sitting.

The Daughter

I was intrigued to request this book and I am glad I did. This is the first book I have read by TM Logan, and I’m now a new fan of his.

4 chapters in and I was already hooked. I’m a huge fan of psychological thrillers and the pace of any book is a big factor for me. Too slow and I will not finish. But this book is going at a fantastic pace for myself. The style of writing is great, the chapters are at a perfect length (it’s hard to put it down after saying only one for chapter).

Every chapter flows great, I didn’t have to look back and see what I had read the night before. The twists and turns in this book were brilliant.

I’ve thoroughly enjoyed reading this book and I can’t wait to read more from TM Logan. Thank you for allowing me to read this advanced copy.

With many thanks to Netgalley for this free arc and I am leaving this unbiased review voluntarily.
In true Tim Logan style this moves at a blistering pace. Well written with some great characters especially little Lucas who is wonderfully portrayed. Grabs you straight from the first chapter and you just have to keep reading to find out what has happened to Evie. Some great twists along the way make this a captivating and addictive read. Great flow to the book and the additional chapters from Evie added depth to the story. Slightly over-long but other than that a brilliant read.

My top TM Logan has always been The Catch, but this new one gives that a run for its money! I read this at a time when I was struggling to get into any books, and it cured my reading slump completely. I kept on reading into the night, like being back to my old self again. There were so many twists and turns - Logan is never predictable - and the relationship between Lauren and Lucas was just so lovely. I'd quite like a Lucas as a little brother! i like how up-to-date Logan's books are - they're not afraid to tackle the topics of the day, and they make use of technology (and here the dark web too), rather than pretending it doesn't exist for plot purposes. So a definite 5-star read from me!

Lauren goes to collect her daughter from university only to discover that she hasn’t been there for weeks. The university aren’t able to help her and the police seem to be even more less interested. I empathised with Lauren as I would hate to be in her position. Whilst she and her daughter didn’t always see eye to eye, she knows Evie would never just take off and not let her know.

Things pick up pace very quickly with Lauren, and the help of her young son, doing their own investigation into Evie’s disappearance. Small snippets of information have you never knowing quite where the story is going to go next. My heart was literally in my mouth many a time as Lauren gets closer to discovering the truth.

The Daughter is full of unexpected twists with one totally blowing my mind! I would go as far as to say it’s one of the best twists I have read in a very long while. I literally could not put it down as I was consumed as to what has happened to Lauren’s daughter and I was every bit as desperate for answers. A highly addictive, keep you up all night read with some jaw-dropping twists! All the stars!

I couldn’t wait to start this book as I have enjoyed all of T.M Logan’s book and this was absolutely brilliant. I couldn’t put it down, was completely hooked and finished it in a day.
Lauren can’t wait to collect her daughter Evie after be first term in university but when she goes to collect her she is nowhere to be found and has just disappeared.
The storyline had me hooked and I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough as the fast paced story took me on so many twists and trims with plenty of red herrings.
The characters were well written and as a mother myself I could understand how Lauren was feeling and how far she was willing to go to find her daughter.
The ending was excellent and the complete opposite to what I was expecting.
Thanks to NetGalley, Bonnier Books UK and T.M Logan for an advance copy in exchange for an honey and unbiased review.
