*THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER, NOW A NETFLIX FILM STARRING KEIRA KNIGHTLEY*

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...

Reseñas de la Crítica

Agatha Christie meets The Girl on the Train in this stupendously good read… Scary and unsettling, it’s edge-of-your-seat stuff

A tense, moody drama set on a press trip that goes horribly wrong… Ware has produced a fantastic variation on the woman-in-peril theme, with a plucky protagonist and a brilliantly claustrophobic setting (Joan Smith)

A rollicking page-turner that reads like Agatha Christie got together with Paula Hawkins to crowdsource a really fun thriller

A fantastic read. A fog-enshrouded cruise ship, a twisty puzzle of a murder mystery reminiscent of Agatha Christie, and unrelenting suspense. Batten down the hatches and prepare to read it in one sitting! (Shari Lapena, author of The Couple Next Door)

The Woman in Cabin 10 is an edge-of-your-seat thriller full of great characters and twists (Reese Witherspoon)

[It] channels Agatha Christie’s murders at sea in a satisfying contemporary direction. (Mark Lawson)

Taut and provocative

This atmospheric thriller will have you gripped

Ware's virtues are gloriously old-fashioned: an ability to combine a sense of menace with the lightness of touch...and sharp prose.

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)

Forgettable

I decided to listen to this because of the movie adaptation coming up. For a simple whodunit, it was fine. It didn't blow me away, or make me desperate to see what happened. So, really, just fine. The narration was easy to listen to, though, and I would listen to this narrator happily again.

if you like action this book is made for you!

amazing plot, a lot of action and a great voice performance. i found it difficult stop listening.

Good old fashioned page turner

From the moment I started listening to this and all the way through to the end… The story and the narrator held me. I couldn't put it down. Bravo!

Keeps you guessing

It was a good mystery, I found it impossible to guess what would happen next or predict any of the plot twists; lots of suspense to keep you hooked!

At first it had a somewhat of an Agatha Christie Murder Mystery feel, a closed environment with a fixed list of suspects, but with a faster moving plot.

Most of the story takes place on the boat, and just when you think you know what’s happening, you get a snippet of what’s going on “off the boat, back home” and any conclusions you may have reached are dashed.

How long until they make a movie?

great twists and awesome narration

The narrator does great accents that make the story even more immersive, and doesn't overdo the accents. If you want a gripping book that'll keep your attention the whole time, this is the book for you! highly recommend. The twist is so good, and the book makes you feel like you're figuring everything out along with the main character.
