The Train is the debut novel from author Sarah Bourne. Drama is in full supply here as Bourne delivers a dramatic story that will have readers on the edge of their seats until it is complete.

No one wakes up in the morning and thinks that their day is going to start with some type of tragedy happening, but somehow that is precisely what is about to occur. What will this day that has begun so strangely hold for the reader to witness? Perhaps you’ve heard of the butterfly effect, the theory that events cause other events to happen without even meaning to simply because their presence causes other things to happen that would not have happened otherwise.

In The Train, everything seems to be going smoothly and it is just another day when a woman decides that she is going to take a step to go in front of a rushing commuter train so that she can bring her time on this planet to an end. The act not only one ends her life, but will set a bunch of actions into motion that will end up affecting the people riding on that train for a long time– and perhaps forever.

There are eight people on this train as passengers that do not know each other but are about to play witnesses to the very same horrible event. They have no idea what is about to happen, but once it occurs, all of them face a crisis of identity. The event causes them to not only react but to take a hard look at who they believe that they are and when it comes to life, what they really want to get out of it.

For some of these eight strangers, their deeper emotions are revealed. For others, it’s a moment where they’re reflecting not only on their life choices but the fact that they are all facing death and the reality that they each will individually pass one day whether they choose to or not.

Can they go through this experience and find that their experience of life is just as it was before, or will they discover that the passing of someone that they never knew personally is the exact pivotal moment where they are motivated to make the changes in their lives that they have been needing? All of these characters are lacking the catalyst that they have needed to change things up in some way.

Could this moment they have all lived through be an actual life-changing moment for them all? Or will only some of them take the lesson and go out and seize the day? Read this amazing debut from Sarah Bourne to live all of the drama and the uniqueness of this story for yourself!

The staff were able to figure out who she was through a letter found in her purse. Ella asks if she could see it, but is told that the letter has gone missing.
