<b>Why is everyone talking about the ending of Sarah Pinborough's <i><b>Behind Her Eyes?</b></i></b> Louise is a single mom, a secretary, stuck in a modern-day rut. On a rare night out, she meets a man in a bar and sparks fly. Though he leaves after they kiss, she’s thrilled she finally connected with someone. When Louise arrives at work on Monday, she meets her new boss, David. The man from the bar. The very married man from the bar…who says the kiss was a terrible mistake but who still can’t keep his eyes off Louise. And then Louise bumps into Adele, who’s new to town and in need of a friend, but she also just happens to be married to David. David and Adele look like the picture-perfect husband and wife, but then why is David so controlling, and why is Adele so scared of him? As Louise is drawn into David and Adele’s orbit, she uncovers more puzzling questions than answers. The only thing that is crystal clear is that something in this marriage is very, very wrong, but Louise can’t guess how wrong―and how far a person might go to protect their marriage’s secrets.

Autor využil túto skutočnosť ako východisko pre svoj psychotriler a podarilo sa mu vybudovať zlovestný a strhujúci kriminálny príbeh. Luxusný výletný kolos, ktorý sa plaví po šírom oceáne, je vlastne hotové malé mesto so svojím mikrokozmom, no bez polície. Ak sa tam stratia pasažieri a na lodi ich nenájdu, vyšetrovatelia predpokladajú, že spáchali samovraždu a skočili do mora. No keď sa zrazu stratený pasažier po dvoch mesiacoch objaví na lodi, to je už iný prípad.
Policajný psychológ Martin Schwarz prišiel pred piatimi rokmi za mysterióznych okolností o ženu a syna. Stalo sa to počas ich dovolenky na luxusnej zaoceánskej lodi. Martin je odvtedy psychicky na dne a vrhá sa ako utajený vyšetrovateľ do najnebezpečnejších policajných akcií, kde mu neraz ide o holý život. Keď sa dozvie, že na lodi sa objavilo dievčatko s medvedíkom jeho syna v náručí, ktoré zmizlo pred niekoľkými mesiacmi, neváha a vyberie sa na loď.
Príbeh Pasažiera 23 sa opiera o jedinečný nápad. Sebastian Fitzek našiel miesto, z ktorého niet úniku, ale kam sa ani nikto tak ľahko nedostane. Páchateľ teda musí byť na lodi a vyšetrovateľovi zostáva len málo času, aby ho našiel. Autor hneď od začiatku rozohráva viacero zápletiek, ktoré mu umožňujú udržať v celej knihe vysokú hladinu napätia. Nebol by to však Fitzek, keby nakoniec nebolo všetko inak.
No sabe cómo se llama, ni de dónde viene. No tiene casa, dinero, ni memoria. Solo le queda una herida de bala en un hombro y un nombre tatuado en la palma de la mano: Noah. Febrero, Berlín. Junto a Oscar, Noah hace cola fuera de un asilo para personas sin hogar. Pero no sabe si su nombre es realmente Noah, ni si él es de verdad un vagabundo. Sabe que habla alemán con un acento extraño, y que Oscar - un verdadero sintecho, obsesionado con la numerología y las conspiraciones - lo encontró agonizante cerca de unas vías. Pero, ¿cómo recuperar la memoria? ¿Cómo entender quién es y por qué alguien intentó matarlo? Si Noah pudiera prever el torbellino de eventos que lo arrastrará en la búsqueda de su pasado, quizás se quedaría en esa cola. Pero el instinto - su instinto de soldado entrenado, tal vez de asesino - lo empuja a seguir adelante; y en la frenética caza de la verdad, Noah descubrirá que millones de personas en todo el mundo corren el riesgo de morir junto a él.
