THERE SHE SITS, THE GIRL ON THE TRAIN. WHAT SHE SEES. GAZING OUT THE WINDOW,
WILL CHANGE EVERYTHING.
EVERY DAY THE SAME Rachel takes the same commuter train every morning and night.

And then she sees something shocking. It's only a minute until the train moves on, but it's enough. Now everything's changed. Unable to keep it to herself, Rachel goes to the police. But is she really as unreliable as they say? Soon she is deeply entangled not only in the investigation but in the lives of everyone involved. Has she done more harm than good?

Compulsively readable. The Girt on the Train is an emotionally immersive, Hitch-cockian thriller and an electrifying debut.
