Passerby by Britney King

 

A random encounter on a train should’ve meant nothing…

until it changed both their lives forever.

When two strangers cross paths during a train ride,

their connection feels instant.

Almost too instant.

As their lives slowly intertwine,

secrets from the past begin surfacing—

trauma, loneliness, manipulation, and hidden truths neither of them fully understands.

What begins as comfort and companionship

slowly transforms into something darker.

Because not every coincidence is accidental.

And sometimes,

the people we trust most

are the ones capable of destroying us.
