Rear Window meets Gone Girl, in this exceptional and startling psychological thriller
'Gripping, enthralling - a top-notch thriller and a compulsive read'
S J WATSON, bestselling author of Before I Go To Sleep
Rachel catches the same commuter train every morning. She knows it will wait at the same signal each time, overlooking a row of back gardens. She’s even started to feel like she knows the people who live in one of the houses. ‘Jess and Jason’, she calls them. Their life – as she sees it – is perfect. If only Rachel could be that happy.
And then she sees something shocking. It’s only a minute until the train moves on, but it’s enough.
Now everything’s changed. Now Rachel has a chance to become a part of the lives she’s only watched from afar.
Now they’ll see; she’s much more than just the girl on the train…
When I get to the church, I turn around and walk back, striding purposefully towards home, a woman with things to do, somewhere to go. Normal. I watch the people I pass – the two men running, backpacks on, training for the marathon, the young woman in a black skirt and white trainers, heels in her bag, on her way to work – and I wonder what they're hiding. Are they moving to stop drinking, running to stand still? Are they thinking about the killer they met yesterday, the one they're planning to see again?
I'm not normal. (查看原文)
I am not the girl I used to be. I am no longer desirable, I'm off-putting in some way. It's not just that i've put on weight, or that my face is puffy from the drinking and the lack of sleep; it's as if people can see the damage written all over me, can see it in my face, the way I hold myself, the way I move.

时隔几年,终于花一个月的时间看完了这本原本只是借我的书。快结尾的时候,Rachel才意识到Tom是个狠人: he lies to himself the way he lies to me. He believes this. He actually believes that he was good to me. 这大概就是普通且自信吧。2022-01

前半段人物和情节刻画都很精细,结尾部分写的太潦草, 看完觉得书名应该改成: 该死的渣男.

英文有声书。真心写得不如普通网文,太能墨迹。女一就是神经病和脑残,各种拎不清还喜欢脑内剧场,女二女三基本也差不多。前一大半都在翻来覆去地说几乎同样的事,能写那么长就是因为女一断片儿了一直没想起来最关键的事。最后一小段女主突然又变成了心智清楚情绪稳定的名侦探,连反派都比她正常点。

还成吧。总觉得这人写的东西前四分之三可以砍掉一半。

作为作者的第一本惊悚小说还是不错的。对于婚姻中的女人那种空虚感觉刻画得不错。还有Rachel作为一个失婚又放不下前夫的酒鬼的心理描写,和她每次坐火车经过往Megan家里观察那种诡异感都不错,是我读下去的动力。 我一直都怀疑是Rachel杀了Megan,因为她第二天完全不记得发生什么事,手上还有血!她当晚喝醉了,在火车上瞥见Megan和Kamal亲吻气得不得了,我以为她是将自己婚姻遭遇的不幸迁怒到M... 作为作者的第一本惊悚小说还是不错的。对于婚姻中的女人那种空虚感觉刻画得不错。还有Rachel作为一个失婚又放不下前夫的酒鬼的心理描写,和她每次坐火车经过往Megan家里观察那种诡异感都不错,是我读下去的动力。 我一直都怀疑是Rachel杀了Megan,因为她第二天完全不记得发生什么事,手上还有血!她当晚喝醉了,在火车上瞥见Megan和Kamal亲吻气得不得了,我以为她是将自己婚姻遭遇的不幸迁怒到Megan身上,冲去把她杀了。但后来发现Megan的尸体被埋在树林里的时候我开始怀疑了,因为她喝烂醉怎么可能埋尸。后来伏笔慢慢越来越明显了,才知道是他!!!!!!结局不错,没让我失望。 @2015-01-30 22:54:03 @2021-12-22 10:51:41 (展开)
