This is one of those books that critics feel obliged to call the next Gone Girl novel. I hate when they do that because then when you are reading the book you are already judging the book with preconceived ideas and the joy of discovering and enjoying the book on its own merit is dampened. So put Gone Girl out of your mind, the only thing that is similar is the narrative style of the book.
Rachel commutes on the train every day and as she does so she sees a couple in a house near the tracks and makes up a life for them in her head. As the book progresses, we find out more details of this couple and about Rachael and when someone goes missing, the reader is pulled into a mystery. Very popular, lots of holds and a good recommendation for someone looking for a strong mystery book, (even though we file it under fiction).
