"Intricate and nuanced - on par with the best top-flight psychological suspense." (LA Times)

International Best Seller

From master of suspense Lisa Unger comes a riveting thriller about a chance encounter that unravels a stunning web of lies.

Selena Murphy is commuting home on the train when she strikes up a conversation with a beautiful stranger in the next seat. The woman introduces herself as Martha and soon confesses that she’s been stuck in an affair with her boss. Selena, in turn, confesses that she suspects her husband is sleeping with the nanny. When the train arrives at Selena’s station, the two women part ways, presumably never to meet again.

Then the nanny disappears.

As Selena is pulled into the mystery of what happened, and as the fractures in her marriage grow deeper, she begins to wonder, who was Martha really? But she is hardly prepared for what she’ll discover....

Predictable

Good performance but the plot line was very predictable— I guessed every single twist. Maybe Unger’s other works are better?

It’s ok

It’s an ok story. The main character was not believable. I understand the point was about the irrational thinking of women who were abused but was created too much

Very simple premise, very simple storyline

As my headline states, this book has a very simple premise and storyline. I found the dialogue repetitive and annoying. One of the worst books I've ever read.
