#AndThatsAWrap of The Break by Daniel Hurst @dhurstbooks @inkubatorbooks #TheBreak #DanielHurst #InkubatorBooks #ZooloosBookTours

It seems like a lovely little house. But it has dark secrets…

Karen is a busy wife and mother. Between work, her husband Peter, and their two children, Oscar and Noah, she doesn’t have a minute to herself.

So when it all begins to feel too much, Karen knows just what she needs – to get away for a little while. Nothing big. Just a short break.

Her friend, Eve, tells her about a quaint little holiday home, and Karen books herself a short stay. She’ll have time to read, take bubble baths, unwind. Perfect.

But this is no ordinary holiday home – it contains a dark and disturbing secret. Because Karen isn’t alone here – someone is watching her. Waiting for the right moment to spring the trap and plunge her into a nightmare she’ll never forget.

The Break – the stunning psychological thriller from the author of The Passenger and The New Friends


We had 7 days to find out whether the break was something Karen really needed

Review by Confessions of a Bookaholic, THE BREAK unfolds at a break-neck speed delivering a no holds barred psychological thriller that is addictive, pageturning and absorbing from start to finish. I did not want to put it down…not even for dinner! How dare real life get in the way of such a thrilling tale?”

Review by twilight_reader (IG), “The pausing moments before the big oh my god that was due to happen gave me incredible feelings. I was almost like shouting at my phone whilst reading this.”


21st March

Review by Avid Readers Club, “It’s written in a quick and easy style, my favourite part is the villain’s plotting, they are very good at being bad.”

Review by Once Upon A Time Book Reviews, “Well plotted and written, the multiple point of view narrative keeps things interesting and the more you get into the story, the more compelled you are to keep going.”

Review by twoladiesandabook (IG), “Well….what can I say! He has done it again! I’m yet to read a Daniel Hurst book yet, that i haven’t absolutely loved.”

Review by The Book Review Crew, “What a quick entertaining read. You have domestic turmoil, an underappreciated wife, a cheating spouse, and a psycho seeking revenge. Not everyone is reliable, but I won’t let on who you can’t trust.”

Review by prdg reads, “this was a good solid psychological thriller, that in places kept me guessing…”


23rd March

Review by Donna’s Interviews, Reviews and Giveaways (FB), “I was gripped and this was one of those books that has the unputdownable tags for good reason. Devoured this over a few hours and the end, well blimey”

Review by My Chestnut Reading Tree, “The Break was a one sitting read for me and I raced through it desperately looking for what connected the events”


24th March

Review by all_books_great_and_small (IG), “After reading the prologue you get an understanding of what the end result of the story is, but the psychological journey through this book to unravel what happened, why and how far someone will go to get revenge, is breathtaking!”

Review by Curling up with a Coffee and a Kindle, “Read it in a day with barely any breaks, but the breaks that I took just meant that I was thinking about it and wanted to get back to it! Pardon the puns please.”

Review by My Reading Getaway, “When I was reading this book on my Kindle, I glanced at where I was and was surprised that I was halfway through the book. The pace of the book is so fast that you don’t want to put it down.”


And that is well and truly a wrap!
