Welcome to BookCrossing! It's a site for catching and releasing books and spreading the good karma of reading! Please make a journal entry when you FIND this book and let previous readers know how you came upon it. You may remain anonymous on this site if you like but it's very safe and spam free. We leave FREE books around for others to stumble upon...they read, and then re-release in a public place for someone else to enjoy. Of course you're welcome to keep the book if you prefer but it's more fun to watch them travel and to hear from them once in a while. I hope you enjoy the book but I especially hope you enjoy BookCrossing.
"Every book, every volume you see here, has a soul. The soul of the person who wrote it and of those who read it and lived and dreamed with it. Every time a book changes hands, every time someone runs his eyes down its pages, its spirit grows and strengthens ..."Carlos Ruiz Zafon (The Shadow of the Wind)

The Barnes & Noble Review
Momentum is the key to suspense, and James Siegel definitely has what it takes to unlock this tricky genre and draw readers into his riveting story from page one. Derailed starts with the story of an ordinary man, a teacher who divides his time between kids who think school is jail and real felons at Attica State Prison. His story gradually blends with one that's being shared by an anonymous inmate -- a compelling story of a mutual obsession that swiftly leads to disaster. It begins with a chance meeting on a commuter train between an advertising executive and a beautiful stockbroker -- both married to other people. They seek each other out, time after time, until an affair becomes inevitable. Then, just as they reach that idyllic peak, a brutal criminal shatters their lives. It's the perfect crime. The lovers are compelled by their situation to hide the fact that they are victims even when their attacker moves from assault to blackmail. In Derailed, lies and small betrayals escalate inevitably to violence, murder, and more, often blurring the line between right and wrong. Sue Stone

Putting into BigJohnLefty's Another Audiobookbox
Taking out of BigJohnLefty's CD only bookbox. I'll pass it along after I finish.
Enjoy! I am lending this book to a non BC friend for her to listen to. After she finishes, she will return it to me so I can listen to it and release the book.
Arrived home tonight from my friend.
I really could not get into this book. I am not going to finish it.

Sorry for the delay in sending this book to you. I hope you enjoy!
This one came as a surprise -- I wasn't expecting it & don't remember requesting it, but my memory is terrible, so there's that. :) Thank you, tostle!
ETA: So I'm registering this book on all my bookish websites & it seems I already own an audio copy somewhere here in my stacks. (yikes!) So that just reinforces that I have a terrible memory. I'm going to make this one available.
