The Woman in Cabin 10

By: Ruth Ware

Narrated by: Imogen Church

This was meant to be the perfect trip. The northern lights. A press launch on a luxury 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 in to 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....

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?

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!

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.

Impossible to stop listening. Seriously.

I never normally write reviews, but this book was so enjoyable I thought that it deserved the time. The narration was impeccable, oddly soothing whilst being extremely suspenseful. My favourite part about the experience was the feeling of constantly being at the edge of a cliff hung on a hook. There wasn’t a singular lead up that climaxed and then dropped to mundane chapters waffling to an end like many thrillers. This book has multiple peaks that keep you thoroughly entertained.

Great holiday book

The narration was excellent! Imogen Church's different accents, especially her scandinavian accent was superb. I have read a few Ruth Ware books and this one was fantastic. There were a few instances where I got annoyed with the weak and impassive behaviour of the main character but overall this was a good book. The book had me guessing to the end. I loved the ending of the book.

I love it!

I'm finding myself hard to stop listening! The narrator did a good job. Highly recommended!

Gripping...

I love a novel that holds your interest so tight that you can't turn it off. Even better when you don't guess what is coming around the corner. Perhaps their will be a sequel??

Great nail biter

Really enjoyable. Will keep you on the edge of your seat. Not to be missed!

gripping story and excellent narration

The narrator was very good with accents and emotions. thoroughly enjoyed listening to this book!

Awful

Tedious and unconvincing. Reader mispronounces words in her slapdash drive to the end (although I couldn't stand it and gave up after four chapters.) Story is flat and pedestrian. This book is another triumph for the publisher's marketing department - shame on you, it's absolute rubbish
