Helpful Score: 2

Three different mysteries come together here, each woven seperately and finally overlapping. One, especially compelling involved the lone childhood survivor of a family massacre, now a doctor with a child of her own, just as the murderer is to be released from prison after serving his time. She has employed a young teenage girl as her "mother's helper" Reggie, who's own mother has recently died.
Reggie is beside herself when her beloved employer and her child suddenly disappear, and is intent on solving the mystery. She tries to enlist the aid of a woman police sargent, and an ex-cop who's life she manages to save after a train crash. So many lives and stories overlapping, yet isn't life itself a series of unexplainable coincidences? Just like the train, going insistently forward before the crash, all these stories come together, as if on impact. I thought this book was very well done and kept me engaged until the very end!
