Paula Hawkins | The girl on the train
The Girl on the Train by Paula Hawkins is a gripping psychological thriller about memory, obsession and the dangerous difference between what we see and what we believe. Every morning, Rachel takes the same commuter train, which regularly stops at a signal overlooking a row of suburban houses. She becomes fascinated by one seemingly perfect couple, whom she privately calls Jess and Jason, imagining a happiness that stands in painful contrast to her own troubled life.
Then, one morning, Rachel sees something shocking from the train window. The glimpse lasts only a moment, but when the woman she has been watching disappears, Rachel becomes entangled in the investigation. With fractured memories and an increasingly uncertain grasp on what she witnessed, she must try to distinguish truth from assumption before it is too late. Ingeniously constructed around unreliable perspectives, The Girl on the Train became an international phenomenon, selling more than 23 million copies and inspiring the major film starring Emily Blunt.
