Description

From the bestselling author of Richard and Judy pick, In A Dark, Dark Wood comes Ruth Ware's next compulsive page-turner. This was meant to be the perfect trip. The Northern Lights. A luxury press launch on a boutique cruise ship. A chance for travel journalist Lo Blackwood to recover from a traumatic break-in that has left her on the verge of collapse, and to work out what she wants from her relationship. Except things don't go as planned. Woken in the night by screams, Lo rushes to her window to see a body thrown overboard from the next door cabin. But the records show that no-one ever checked into that cabin, and no passengers are missing from the boat. Exhausted, emotional and increasingly desperate, Lo has to face the fact that her sleep problems might be driving her mad or she is trapped on a boat with a murderer - and she is the sole witness...

Reviews

"I absolutely swallowed it whole; she takes that classic golden-age premise of a locked room and turns it into something completely right for the twenty-first century" -- Erin Kelly "The Woman in Cabin 10 is a deliciously compulsive read. At once up-to-the-minute and timeless, it blends classic suspense writing with twenty-first-century twists and turns. A book to keep you reading late into the night and leave your mind and pulse racing long after the final page" -- Ann Morgan, author of Beside Myself "All the glamour of Agatha Christie's Murder on the Orient Express with a titanic dose of intrigue and mystery... fast and addictive and will keep you guessing until the very end" -- T.R.Richmond, author of What She Left "A claustrophobic page-turner that'll have you suspecting everyone. Agatha Christie for the Whatsapp generation" -- Tamar Cohen, author of The Broken "A dark and gripping thriller that will enchant readers" -- Sarah Ward, author of In Bitter Chill
