TM Logan is a British author of psychological thrillers. He is best known for Lies (2017) and The Holiday (2019). His honours include a Nielsen Bestseller Silver Award and the 2025 Fingerprint Awards Audiobook of the Year.
TM Logan was born in Berkshire to an English father and a German mother. He grew up in Reading and developed an avid interest in reading. He studied at Queen Mary and Cardiff universities, where he read history and later journalism.
Logan began his career as a reporter at the Nottingham Evening Post. He later moved to London to work as a science reporter at the Daily Mail. He returned to the East Midlands to join the University of Nottingham as a press officer.
Logan wrote fiction in spare hours for several years. In January 2017, he published his debut thriller, Lies. Two weeks later, his university role was made redundant, and he turned full-time to writing. “It’s a job that I love,” he later said. Lies became one of Amazon UK’s biggest ebooks of 2017 and won a Nielsen Silver Award. His second novel, 29 Seconds (2018), confirmed his move into standalone thrillers.

The Catch (2020) was adapted for television, starring Jason Watkins. Trust Me (2021) was featured on the Sunday Times list. The Curfew followed, set over one summer night after exam season. The Mother told of a woman who seeks justice after being wrongfully convicted.
