Picked this up in Kamploops at the book exchange in the campground. Knew it was popular but knew nothing about it.
I enjoyed the book. But it was sad and hard to watch Rachel plunge into darkness.

Read while enjoying beautiful weather at Lake Chelan. Passing on to friend and travelling companion, IN, for her to enjoy and pass on...
For a thriller novel, I found it hard to believe any plot line because of the continuous lies from each of the characters.
Lots of 'Girl' books out there: Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, Gone Girl...
I was happy to receive this book from my friend BV and will pass it on to my travelling friend NK. Perhaps NK will take a train on her upcoming trip to Europe!
