Ella is wracked with guilt fearing that she is to blame for Anna’s disappearance, failing to do what she should have done that day on the train. Someone starts sending Ella letters to her… “I am watching you…” One year on and an appeal is brought to the attention of the general public. It becomes clear to the reader that Anna’s friend Sarah hasn’t been telling the whole truth about what happened that fateful night, nor have Anna’s parents as deeper secrets are uncovered. Who is responsible for Anna’s murder? Who knows where she is?
The themes explored in this book are harsh and bring light to real issues that happen in daily life.

Mental illness and suicide is also explored throughout, particularly feelings towards guilt and trauma. Domestic violence is also explored in regards to physical and emotional abuse. Sex is also a central theme to the book and is threaded throughout.
