in a chronicle whose final pages yield startling revelations." —The
Wall Street Journal
"[A] succulent new mystery… Hawkins, influenced by Hitchcock,

“Hawkins is at the forefront of a group of female authors – think
Gillian Flynn and Megan Abbott – who have reinvigorated the
literary suspense novel by tapping a rich vein of psychological

politics, and wrongs that won’t rinse clean.”—Entertainment

"Contains just as many hair-raising plot twists as [The Girl on the

present.” —Harper's Bazaar

between daughters, mothers and sisters, and the relationship
between ‘good men’ and ‘troublesome women.’”—Jezebel

constantly turn things over in our minds, crafting inner monologues

empathetic and humane page-turner.” —The A.V. Club

literary end of the spectrum.”—Financial Times

of [The Girl on the Train], but it beams with a maturity in writing

duty, familial faults and small-town paranoia." —Minneapolis
Star-Tribune
