I’m a long-time fan of Ruth Ware’s novels, and The Woman in Cabin 10 is one of my favourites. A locked-room mystery in the style of Agatha Christie, the story is set on a boutique cruise ship heading for the Northern Lights. Travel journalist Lo Blacklock – herself on something of an emotional journey – is woken by a scream from the cabin next to hers. She races to the window, just in time to see a body plunging overboard. But there’s no record of anyone being allocated that cabin, and no passengers are missing. Is Lo losing her mind? A brilliantly claustrophobic mystery with a cracking twist you’ll drive yourself mad trying to figure out.

A PASSENGER IS MISSING...BUT WAS SHE EVER ON BOARD AT ALL?
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 Blacklock to recover from a traumatic break-in that has left her on the verge of collapse.
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 and emotional, Lo has to face the fact that she may have made a mistake - either that, or she is now trapped on a boat with a murderer... _________________
