BLOG TOUR – The Dream Home by TM Logan

He’s known as the “Master of the up-all-night thriller”! There’s a very good reason for that! It is an absolute thrill for me to be kicking off the blog tour for TM Logan’s brand new book, The Dream Home. This is a chilling page-turner that will definitely keep you glued to the pages!

Blurb:

IT WAS EVERYTHING THEY WANTED. AND MORE THAN THEY BARGAINED FOR …. THE UNMISSABLE NEW THRILLER FROM THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF THE MOTHER, THE CATCH AND THE HOLIDAY

Inside Adam discovers a collection of forgotten items: a wallet, an expensive watch and an old mobile phone. Jess thinks they should simply throw them away. But Adam resists. He is fascinated by these items and how they came to be inside the hidden room.

Adam and Jess move into a new house with their three young children: a rambling Victorian villa in a nice neighbourhood right at the very top of their price range. Before long Adam discovers a door hidden behind a fitted wardrobe, concealing a secret room …

But like the house, Adam has his secrets too. And soon he will find himself setting in motion a series of events that will place his family in terrible danger …

My Review:

I couldn’t put this down! Told with just the right balance of chills, thrills, unanswered questions and red herrings, this is a story that ticks every single box for the perfect psychological thriller.

Adam and Jess have moved their family into a large Victorian home in The Park, a smart neighbourhood in Nottinghamshire (I did love the references to Sherwood Forest!) They know they’ve extended themselves rather a lot, financially speaking, but the house is gorgeous and even though it needs lots of TLC, it’s a project they can work on together and it will all be worth it as the location is perfect for their needs.

When Adam discovers a hidden room in the house that his family has just moved into. He finds an assortment of random items there and tries to piece together their significance. In so doing, he sets into motion a series of events he could never have imagined.

The story is told from Adam’s point of view but every so often there are brief chapters thrown in about different people who seem entirely unrelated to what’s going on. I must admit, I did suspect some of the outcome, but I had no clue as to the ‘whodunit’ part of the plot until literally a page before the reveal, when it suddenly dawned on me who it could be!

This is TM Logan at his brilliant best. He creates believable, relatable down-to-earth characters who are just like you and me. He’s skilled and adept at building his story, and in so doing, heightening the tension and anticipation of where things are heading. This makes for nail-biting, unputdownable, 5-star reading!

Thank you to Compulsive Readers and Zaffre Books for this fabulous blog tour, and the chance to read an early copy of this book. It’s bound to be another TM Logan bestseller!
