The Woman in Cabin 10 by Ruth Ware
Lo Blacklock’s obsession, in The Woman in Cabin 10, is neither love nor revenge, it’s in uncovering the truth about a murder and these are my favorite kind of stories. As a Ruth Ware fanatic, I cannot say enough good things about her Agatha Christie-esque style of weaving a mystery. When Lo takes a journalism assignment on a posh cruise ship, she’s excited for the opportunity, but it quickly turns nightmarish when she’s certain she sees a woman being thrown overboard. When all the passengers are present and accounted for, nobody takes her claims seriously. Lo knows what she saw and is determined to find the truth, but someone wants to shut her up. This twisty, run-for-your life story ticks all the boxes for what a thriller should be. And if you like to listen to your thrillers, Imogen Church’s narration is award-worthy in my book.
