THE ORIGINAL BOOKS ↓The Glove · a cover motif reimagined as an object to examine up close.
On the cover of The Woman on the Train, the motif is identified as “The red glove.” Every morning, from her train, she sees the family she had in another life.
On the cover of Alone at Concordia, the motif is identified as “The Glove.” One night, she wakes in another version of the base, where a dead colleague is alive.
The motif, its illustration, and its appearances can be compared. A resemblance proves neither that the same object has traveled nor that two stories share a continuity.
Crime, investigation & psychological thrillersEvery morning, the train passes the family she lost in another life. Mara Keane recognizes a house, gestures, an intimacy she believes she once shared. Through the train window, the people she loves seem to carry on without her. Here, though, she has never had a place in their family.
