The Quiet Tenant

Thank you, NetGalley, for this book.

What an outstanding thriller! That said, it’s tough to give a lot of info without spoilers because so much of the story reveal is critical to understanding who is involved.

The two storylines that the readers follow are of the woman in the shed. She’s unnamed, but we quickly learn she was kidnapped and has been held hostage for five years. The other storyline revolves around Emily, who owns a restaurant and meets a new man.

In between are some interstitial chapters that provide more insight into the woman in the shed’s kidnapper. These chapters are both horrifying and enlightening, and they will stick with me. The woman’s story and Emily’s story are related, but it takes some time for this to happen. This book was excellent and I definitely recommend it.
