About this deal
I have been so excited about the release of The Curfew by T.M. Logan as he’s a real favourite author of mine! The Curfew is out on March 17th but for a little taster of how brilliantly twisty his storylines are then The Holiday has been made into a 4 part tv drama on Channel 5 starting this week. When Connor misses his curfew, it sets off a series of events that will change the lives of five families forever.
With plenty of twists and turns, The Curfew will keep you guessing right until the very end. I have to say that my favourite characters were Connors sister Harriet and their dog Toffee. Harriet was like a dog with a bone, and smarter than them all put together. However, one of the standout characters in The Curfewis Andy’s daughter and Connor’s sister, Harriet. Harriet is incredibly intelligent and isn’t the most popular at school as a result and at one point it even notes she was teased at school. However, she’s the absolute hero of this story, literally saving the day in a couple of instances and constantly bringing some humour, wit and intelligence to a cast of characters who can feel very stale at times. The Curfew final rating – 4 I should have known something was wrong. I should have sensed it. Felt it in the air, like the build-up of pressure before a thunderstorm, that heavy, loaded calm. I think every parent can recognize themselves in many of the characters. The need to give your teenager more freedom as their grow up but at the same time you can not seem to stop worring that something bad may happen to them and fear that you won't be able to help. The narration is like listening to a rather mundane maths teacher, not bad but does not lend anything to lift this equally mundane story.The Catch , my fourth book, tells the story of a father who becomes convinced his daughter is about to marry a man with terrible secrets. It has also been made into a four-part TV drama currently on Netflix and starring Jason Watkins, Poppy Gilbert, Aneurin Barnard and Cathy Belton.
Sadly I have found the last two thrillers also very disappointing "Reputation" by Sarah Vaughan and much hyped latest by Lucy Foley "The Paris Apartment" and this will be another one I find is not worth a credit.Bestselling author TM Logan was a national newspaper journalist before turning to novel-writing full time.
