The Daughter by T.M. LoganSynopsis: “You thought she was safe. You were wrong . . .

Lauren can’t wait to see her daughter again, to pick her up from university at the end of her first term. But when she arrives at her hall and knocks on the door to her room, a stranger opens it.

At first, Lauren thinks she must have the wrong room, or the wrong floor. Maybe even the wrong building. But she soon realises the truth: Evie’s not there. She hasn’t been there for weeks. So where is she? Following one family’s desperate race against time as one terrifying moment unravels into a living nightmare, The Daughter is the unmissable new heart-in-mouth thriller from the Sunday Times bestselling author of The Mother and The Dream Home.”

My Review

Wow this was so intense, but really good! I’m glad I took a chance on it after reading Yvonne’s brilliant review!

Set in England it follows Lauren, as she tries to find out where her daughter Evie has disappeared to.

Straight away I was wondering if perhaps Evie wanted to disappear as maybe her mother was too controlling? But as I listened I realised it was much more involved than that.

Most of the story is told by Lauren, but occasionally there are points of view from Evie and other characters as the story unfolds.

There were some brilliant twists throughout making the story more intense as I listened. In fact it got to the point where I can’t cope with any more, as it was getting too much! 🫣 I guessed some of what was going on but not everything.

Louise Brealey’s narration’s was as superb as I expected it be. Her voice talents was amazing for all the different characters.

It’s the first book by T.M.Logan that I’ve listened to and I’m sure I’ll be reading or listening to his back catalogue.

Highly recommended if you enjoy thrillers featuring missing persons.
