THE GRIPPING NEW THRILLER FROM EMMA CURTIS, BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF THE BABYSITTER

'
Couldn't stop reading. Emma Curtis is a genius!' ANDREA MARA, No 1 bestselling author of NO ONE SAW A THING

I used to dread rush hour. Now I live for it...

Rachel wakes from a coma to discover her controlling husband has been killed, and the police suspect her of involvement.

But all Rachel can recall from the last few weeks are tantalising flashes of a fellow commuter. A man whose name she doesn't know.

A man who has disappeared without a trace.

Now Rachel is a wealthy widow and the vultures are circling, wanting her in prison for murder, or failing that ... dead.

Can Rachel discover the truth in time to save herself?
