Where do bestsellers come from? Right from our lives.
One day, the author was riding a train to London. Two young people got into her carriage with black bags. When she found out that they had been released from prison just today, she felt uneasy—and at the same time terribly wanted to know what would happen next. That’s how this novel came about…
Two attractive guys sat down with a couple of young girls by the window and started flirting. Ella Longfield, sitting nearby, didn’t pay attention to them until she accidentally overheard that the boys had been released from prison only today. Doubts began to torment her. Should she intervene or not? After all, who knows what to expect from two former prisoners… In the end, she decided not to get involved—young people have their own affairs and their own lives. But the very next morning the news literally shocked her: one of those girls, the green-eyed Anna, disappeared without a trace…
A year passed. Anna still hasn’t been found, and so have her fellow travelers. Ella is plagued by guilt. And to top it all, someone sends her threatening postcards. Someone knows she stayed silent. Someone is watching her. Someone wants her to pay for everything…
