Rachel Watson longs for a different life. As she travels each day through the south London commuter belt, her escape is the perfect couple she sees through the train window, happy and in love. Or so it appears.
When Rachel learns that the woman she’s been secretly watching has disappeared, she finds herself a suspect. Confused and isolated, she inserts herself into the missing woman’s life, determined to discover what happened.
Can she piece together her fragmented memories in time to solve the mystery – or will they reveal her own guilt?
