Publisher Description
Your son said he was home. Why did he lie?
It's time to preorder the brand new up-all-night thriller from the Sunday Times bestselling author of Richard and Judy pick The Holiday and The Catch.
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.
The curfew
Andy and Laura are good parents. They tell their son Connor that he can go out with friends to celebrate completing his exams, but he must be home by midnight.
The lie
When Connor misses his curfew, it sets off a series of events that will change the lives of five families forever.
The truth?
Because five teenagers went into the woods that night, but only four came out. And telling the truth might mean losing everything...

APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
When 16-year-old Connor joins his friends to celebrate finishing exams, he misses his midnight curfew—and one teenager is missing from the group that comes back from the Nottingham woods. Soon the secrets and deceptions are mounting and Connor becomes the prime suspect in his schoolmate’s disappearance. Narrated mostly by his panicked father over just a handful of days, The Curfew is a rapid-paced whodunit that hinges on loyalty and trust between family and friends. As in any T.M. Logan thriller, there are plenty of rewarding twists along the way. And in an ensemble cast of well-drawn characters, Connor’s precocious younger sister Harriet is especially winsome.
