Aidan Thomas is a hard-working family man and a somewhat beloved figure in the small upstate New York town where he lives. He\u2019s the kind of man who always lends a hand and has a good word for everyone. But Aidan has a dark secret he\u2019s been keeping from everyone in town and those closest to him. He\u2019s a kidnapper and serial killer. Aidan has murdered eight women and there\u2019s a ninth he has earmarked for death: Rachel, imprisoned in a backyard shed, fearing for her life.<\/p>\n

When Aidan\u2019s wife dies, he and his thirteen-year-old daughter Cecilia are forced to move. Aidan has no choice but to bring Rachel along, introducing her to Cecilia as a \u201cfamily friend\u201d who needs a place to stay. Aidan is betting on Rachel, after five years of captivity, being too brainwashed and fearful to attempt to escape. But Rachel is a fighter and survivor, and recognizes Cecilia might just be the lifeline she has waited for all these years. As Rachel tests the boundaries of her new living situation, she begins to form a tenuous connection with Cecilia. And when Emily, a local restaurant owner, develops a crush on the handsome widower, she finds herself drawn into Rachel and Cecilia\u2019s orbit, coming dangerously close to discovering Aidan\u2019s secret.<\/p>\n

Told through the perspectives of Rachel, Cecilia, and Emily,\u00a0The Quiet Tenant<\/span>\u00a0explores the psychological impact of Aidan\u2019s crimes on the women in his life\u2014and the bonds between those women that give them the strength to fight back. Both a searing thriller and an astute study of trauma, survival, and the dynamics of power,\u00a0The Quiet Tenant\u00a0<\/span>is an electrifying debut thriller by a major talent.<\/p>\n

Review by Twinsie Dee<\/p>\n

i bought this book and here is my honest review<\/p>\n

Taken from society 5 years ago forced to live in a shed and be her captures plaything for to have sex with him when he needs. One day he tells you that he’s moving, after this wife died the house was being sold, but instead of a shed you are now allowed a bedroom and have to act like a normal person, so you don’t scare his daughter. life is still the same as in the shed, but he gave her a bed, new clothes, a bathroom, and able to go to the kitchen. but when you learn more, you can use it to your advantage. also getting a glance inside his mind finding out he has a new target you do what you can to not only save yourself, but his daughter and the new target. this book was confusing to the point you don’t know what’s going on most of the time. it definitely didn’t live up to the hype I had been seeing all over and took a good way through to get into it, before things started clicking into place.<\/p>\n
