If you've been left with a Girl on the Train-shaped shaped hole in your life, this book will undoubtedly fill it ... sinister and compelling
NJ Fountain has produced a beautifully written thriller that manages to be both devious and compulsive

N.J. Fountain throws in twist after twist... even the keenest mystery reader will be kept guessing to the end
