The quiver in the voice. The sigh of remorse. The breathless suspense. All palpable clues to the narrator's "overactive imagination." Best-selling The Girl on the Train makes a voyeur of its listeners by seeing what it should not see. And letting you in on the secret.
Rachel takes the same commuter train every morning. Every day she rattles down the track, flashes past a stretch of cozy suburban homes, and stops at the signal that allows her to daily watch the same couple breakfasting on their deck. She's even started to feel like she knows them. "Jess and Jason," she calls them. Their life—as she sees it—is perfect. Not unlike the life she recently lost.
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 offers what she knows to the police, and becomes inextricably entwined in what happens next, as well as in the lives of everyone involved. Has she done more harm than good?
The Girl on the Train wonders—just loud enough for you to hear—what would happen if you looked too closely?
