About this product

Product Information

The #1 New York Times Bestseller, USA Today Book of the Year, now a major motion picture starring Emily Blunt. The debut psychological thriller that will forever change the way you look at other people's lives, from the author of Into the Water and A Slow Fire Burning. "Nothing is more addicting than The Girl on the Train. "-- Vanity Fair " The Girl on the Train has more fun with unreliable narration than any chiller since Gone Girl . . . . [It] is liable to draw a large, bedazzled readership."-- The New York Times "Marries movie noir with novelistic trickery. . . hang on tight. You'll be surprised by what horrors lurk around the bend."-- USA Today "Like its train, the story blasts through the stagnation of these lives in suburban London and the reader cannot help but turn pages."-- The Boston Globe " Gone Girl fans will devour this psychological thriller."-- People EVERY DAY THE SAME Rachel takes the same commuter train every morning and night. 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. UNTIL TODAY 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?

The novel is perfectly paced, from its arresting beginning to its twist ending; it''s not an easy book to put down. . . . . What really makes The Girl on the Train such a gripping novel is Hawkins'' remarkable understanding of the limits of human knowledge, and the degree to which memory and imagination can become confused."NPR.org "[L]ike Gone Girl , Hawkins''s book is a highly addictive novel about a lonely divorcee who gets caught up in the disappearance of a woman whom she had been surreptitiously watching.

Received item as pictured. Very timely shipment. A book in very good condition. Adequate packaging, although it was a bugaboo. Didn't like the taped wrapping inside, way too tight to remove item from packaging. Otherwise a generally satisfactory transaction.
