Absolutely loved this book by Lisa Unger! All of her books are awesome thrillers but I think she outdid herself with this one. I read it in one sitting and cannot wait to recommend this one. Thank you to NetGalley and the publishers for the advanced copy.

Lisa Unger has outdone herself with her new "Confessions on the 7:45." It's a roller coaster ride that is plotted meticulously and seamlessly, unfolding fast enough to keep you glued to your seat, but slowly enough to keep you on the edge of that seat with your heart racing. Loved it!

When the commuter train Selena Murphy takes home everyday stalls, she strikes up a conversation with fellow traveller, “Martha.” The two exchange confidences the way strangers sometimes do, and Selena learns that Martha has been having an affair with her boss, at which point Selena shares that she believes her own husband has been sleeping with their nanny and where is Selena’s husband? Then out of nowhere, a few days later, Selena’s nanny disappears. She can’t help but wonder if Martha had something to do with the disappearance, but that’s surely not possible. Things like that only happen in the movies or in books, right? This plot line is far from original, but in the hands of the incomparable Unger, the story becomes more twisted and surprising than readers will ever guess
