There's something about disclosing all to a complete stranger. They don't know you, your background, where you have come from. You can be completely honest knowing that there will be no repercussions.....or that's what you think.
Selena gets the late train home. She spots an empty seat next to a beautiful woman. There's something about her that she can't quite put her finger on, but never the less, she finds herself disclosing a big secret. In return the stranger tells Selena her big secret. When Selena exits the train she thinks nothing of their encounter.
However, secrets have a habit of coming out. Selena's husband has been sleeping with the nanny, and now suddenly the nanny has disappeared. The stranger on the train keeps texting Selena but she can't remember giving her her number. Police are crawling around the house looking for answers and her husband is the number one suspect. Life has just completely upended itself and now Selena doesn't know who to believe.
Really enjoyed reading this one. I loved the suspense, the back story to the characters and then the surprise at finding out who they really are.
