The Tenants by M. A. Hunter

(Thank you to the publisher for providing me with a copy of this book!)
 

about book: (summary from Goodreads)

If walls could talk...

Looking after and tending to the needs of my tenants is what gives me purpose. Every day I go out of my way to watch over them and keep them safe. They're more than just paying guests, they're my neighbours, and I will do whatever it takes to ensure they're happy.

But when one of them is found dead in their apartment, everything I thought I knew is thrown into chaos. I always thought that danger only lived in the outside world, it’s why I’ve not stepped foot outside this building for 5 years. But I’m quickly realising that there is more to fear inside these walls.

When I inherited this building from my dad I had no idea about its sordid history. But as far as I'm concerned, no good comes from digging up the past. But with the police asking probing questions - about them, about me - and with my tenants holding secret meetings, I must uncover the truth before anyone else comes to harm, even if it means risking everything I've carefully built.

my thoughts:

The Tenants kept me reading late into the night and I enjoyed every minute I spent with the book. I found myself second guessing what would happen next, which I loved. M. A. Hunter has written a captivating and thrilling story about a landlord obsessed with keeping the peace in her apartment building. And I mean, she is obsessed. There are creepy passageways behind the walls of the apartments to spy from, secret meetings between the tenants, gossiping neighbors, a possibly alcoholic agoraphobic landlord, a dark history that taints the building, and a murder. Yeah, a lot happens and it is unputdownable. The Tenants is a must-read for anyone and everyone looking for their next great read - you won't want to miss out on this clever and eerie tale. Grab a copy ASAP and find out what all the fuss is about!
