The Holiday
The Holiday | T.M. Logan
Seven days. Three families. One killer. It was supposed to be the perfect holiday - a group of families enjoying a week together in the sun. Four women who have been best friends for as long as they can remember making the most of a luxurious villa in the south of France. But Kate has a secret: her husband is having an affair. And a week away might just be the perfect opportunity to get the proof she needs - to catch him in the act once and for all. Because she suspects the other woman is one of her two best friends. One of them is working against her, willing to sacrifice years of friendship to destroy her family. But which one? As Kate closes in on the truth in the stifling Mediterranean heat, she realises too late that the stakes are far higher than she ever imagined . . . Because someone in the villa may be prepared to kill to keep their secret hidden. Praise for T.M. Logan: 'Hypnotically readable - with a twist you won't see coming' Lee Child 'A tense and gripping thriller' BA Paris 'A compelling, twisty page-turner' James Swallow 'Outstanding and very well-written debut psychological thriller. So gripping I genuinely found it difficult to put down' K. L. Slater 'A terrific page-turner, didn't see that twist! A thoroughly enjoyable thriller' Mel Sherrat 'Even the cleverest second guesser is unlikely to arrive at the truth until it's much too late' The Times 'Creepy, creepy, creepy . . . a winner if you like thrillers' Woman's Way

Seven days. Three families. One killer. This has been on my kindle for a while. Four women who were best friends at university meet up in the south of France with their husbands and children. Kate thinks her husband is having an affair, but who? One of the best friends. Which one? Kate is closing in on the truth but the stakes are far higher then she could ever imagine.
A gripping story that had me hooked from the start. Perfect for a holiday read

It kept me listening! I knew the thing wasn‘t the thing that the mc assumed was the thing, but I never worked out what the thing was.

But, for a thriller, it took an awful long time to thrill. And for a whodunnit, the it happened at the 80% mark, immediately followed by the who, & a little later the why, which was kindof weird - I guess it was more of a Whydunnwhat.

So probably not my thing - but it did keep me reading to the very end

LiteraryinLawrence Great review! 😂 3y

⭐⭐⭐⭐A group of ladies take their partners and children on a group holiday. What should be a lovely get together starts unravelling as secrets start to be revealed and suspicions of infidelity within the group arise. Another great read from T M Logan who definitely knows how to build suspense and finish with a surprise ending you do not anticipate. #tmlogan #theholiday #tea_sipping_bookworm #goodreads #litsy #thestorygraph #bookqueen #bookstagram

Seven days. Three families. One killer.
It was supposed to be the perfect holiday, dreamed up by Kate as the ideal way to turn 40: four best friends and their husbands and children in a luxurious villa under the blazing sunshine of Provence.
But there is trouble in paradise.

It was an okay story but definitely not as good as Lies or 29 Seconds. Just felt like it went on too long and was all a little too obvious.

I can almost guarantee that this is the only #sappyholidayromance you will catch me watching. I'm not one for Hallmark movies or cheesy vacation loves but I did enjoy this one.

Possibly because I had a HUGE crush on Jude Law at the time it came out. I mean, just look at that bashful face 😍😍

SamAnne I'm in the same boat. Hoping I can rack some points up on the Movie Bingos only watching movies like Krampus, Bad Santa, Elf!. Maybe some old classics. 4y
FantasyChick The same movie can be used on multiple squares on multiple cards so I'm hoping to do the same! I'm sure there are lots of great movies that fit that arent hallmark 4y

I read this book within four hours! The story started off a bit slow. It explained the background and introduced all the characters and this was needed for the story but maybe just a bit quicker. Once the story got going it did not stop. There were false leads to who the affair could be with and when you thought you know, you were wrong again. It involves characters I did not expect it to and it had an ending I didn‘t expect.

This was a real slow burn story. Theres a lot going on in the story but it all links together. The plot is clever and I never figured out the twist. The ending was brilliant. I was so worried it was going to end one way and then that last bit was exactly how I wanted it to end. The story is told from multiple view points which does add to the mystery. Though I much preferred Kate's sections.

Thanks to #readersfirst for this ARC...

Kate goes on a villa holiday with her 3 oldest friends and assorted husbands and children - one of her friends is having an affair with her husband; but which one?

This is a typical ‘holiday‘ book - easy to read, with lots of twists. I didn‘t guess ‘whodunit‘, which is always good!

Some little niggles but overall, a great holiday read; but not when you‘re sharing a villa with old friends...🤪

squirrelbrain Thanks to @jenniferw88 for the postcard from your trip - that took a long time to get here didn‘t it?! I love getting postcards in the mail... 😘 5y
TrishB I just got one off Jenny‘s holiday too - obviously there was a Litsy mail hold somewhere! 5y
jenniferw88 @squirrelbrain I tried to find a postcard with a squirrel on but no luck... @TrishB 🤣🤣🤣 5y
jenniferw88 I sent some to rhe USA too... I dread to think when they'll arrive! 🤞😂🤞😂🤞😂 5y
squirrelbrain I sent some from France to the UK last year and they took between 3 days and 1 month to arrive! 🤷‍♀️ 5y
