Her name is Lucinda. Like Charles, she is married. Like Charles, she takes the train every day to work in New York City. Her train is the 9:05, and tomorrow she will be on it again, and so will Charles. For there is something about Lucinda, the flash of thigh beneath her short skirt, the way every man on the train is eyeing her, something about this time of the morning that will make Charles take a chance he shouldn't take, break a vow he shouldn't break, and enter a room he should never enter.
In a matter of days, a flirtation turns to a passion, and Charles and Lucinda are drawn into the dark side of the American Dream. In a matter of weeks, Charles's life is in shambles. A man is dead. A small fortune is stolen. Charles's home is violated and everything violently spirals out of control.
But Charles is about to discover that once you leave the straight and narrow, getting back on track is the most perilous journey of all. And for Charles, that journey - of lies, terror, and deception - has just begun.

Reseñas de la Crítica
"The buzz is warranted: this story of a middle-class professional whose life goes incredibly, criminally awry is one of the most exciting thrillers in years. With its clean prose, high-velocity plotting and just the right amount of emotional shading darkening its sharply drawn characters, this novel is the bomb." (Publishers Weekly)

However, the empathy with Charles and his family that the story enables makes its violence very disturbing. Also, certain aspects of Charles' quest to rebuild his life and eliminate his persistent tormentor do not withstand scrutiny. The most troubling of these is Charles' loyalty to his ex-lover when his own family is threatened, even as he regrets the affair.
If you like a well-written, suspenseful New York novel, but don't mind and violence and occasional implausibility, then this selection may be for you.

I found "Derailed" to be generally fascinating. It was often frustrating when Charles did something that I could not agree with but I had little problem in seeing his own changing motivations. The greatest book ever written? Hardly! An excellent and fun (often disturbing) read? Absolutely.
I would be remiss if I did not comment favorably on Gregory Harrison's reading. Excellent! He made me really hate that bad guy. I myself might even have . . . Well, we'll skip that.
A real page-turner (if we had pages)

Would you listen to Derailed again? Why?
This is the second time that I listened to it. The first time was about 8 years ago. Really a good read. Major suspenseful twist that I never saw coming the first time. One of the reasons I reread it was because I kept thinking about that twist and I wanted to listen again to how it was developed.Which scene was your favorite?
The big twist mentioned above.Who was the most memorable character of Derailed and why?
Charles. The story was told from his perspective. Gregory Harrison is an excellent narrator. Did a fabulous job.Any additional comments?
Yeah....I also saw the movie about ten years ago. Guess I really like the story. Oh...Jennifer Aniston starred as Lucinda, so I was seeing her as I listened to the book. Made it even better. I think it is one of her best movies.Dark, very dark!!
