“Intricate and nuanced—on par with the best top-flight psychological suspense.” —L.A. Times

INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER

From master of suspense Lisa Unger comes a riveting thriller about a chance encounter that unravels a stunning web of lies.

Selena Murphy is commuting home on the train when she strikes up a conversation with a beautiful stranger in the next seat. The woman introduces herself as Martha and soon confesses that she’s been stuck in an affair with her boss. Selena, in turn, confesses that she suspects her husband is sleeping with the nanny. When the train arrives at Selena’s station, the two women part ways, presumably never to meet again.

Then the nanny disappears.

As Selena is pulled into the mystery of what happened, and as the fractures in her marriage grow deeper, she begins to wonder, who was Martha really? But she is hardly prepared for what she’ll discover…

Don't miss The New Couple in 5B, Lisa Unger's newest psychological thriller about a couple that inherits an apartment with a truly chilling past.

  • Interesting characters

    I enjoyed the book. I read some reviews that said it could be difficult to read with too many characters, but I didn’t think so. Good plot, decent ending worth the read.
  • Intriguing

    Enjoyed this suspenseful, intriguing book. Lots of twists and turns that were unexpected. Sometimes a little hard to follow — with the back and forth — but this book keeps your interest throughout

    First book I’ve rated five stars. Little slow through the 1st half but like a rollercoaster, great ride after you get over that 1st hump. Full of crazy twists and lots of insights into very complicated relationships.
  • A Decent Read!

    It kept me interested and guessing! The writing style was my least favorite and at times I felt like I needed an org chart for the people. But I would recommend this one.

    This book was INSANE INCREDIBLE UNPREDICTABLE. If you love mystery and also kinda hate men, I think this one’s for the girls.
  • So shocking yet could totally happen, making it hard to put down.

    I haven’t read a book in years, I couldn’t imagine a different book to ignite the want to read again. Hoping this gets others excited to engage with something other than these mind numbing apps everyone is sucked into.
