INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES AND USA TODAY BESTSELLER

FROM THE AUTHOR OF IN A DARK, DARK WOOD

Featured in TheSkimm

An Entertainment Weekly “Summer Must List” Pick

A New York Post “Summer Must-Read” Pick

Included in Summer Book Guides from Bustle, Oprah.com, PureWow, and USA TODAY

An instant New York Times bestseller, The Woman in Cabin 10 is a gripping psychological thriller set at sea from an essential mystery writer in the tradition of Agatha Christie.

In this tightly wound, enthralling story reminiscent of Agatha Christie’s works, Lo Blacklock, a journalist who writes for a travel magazine, has just been given the assignment of a lifetime: a week on a luxury cruise with only a handful of cabins. The sky is clear, the waters calm, and the veneered, select guests jovial as the exclusive cruise ship, the Aurora, begins her voyage in the picturesque North Sea. At first, Lo’s stay is nothing but pleasant: the cabins are plush, the dinner parties are sparkling, and the guests are elegant. But as the week wears on, frigid winds whip the deck, gray skies fall, and Lo witnesses what she can only describe as a dark and terrifying nightmare: a woman being thrown overboard. The problem? All passengers remain accounted for—and so, the ship sails on as if nothing has happened, despite Lo’s desperate attempts to convey that something (or someone) has gone terribly, terribly wrong…

With surprising twists, spine-tingling turns, and a setting that proves as uncomfortably claustrophobic as it is eerily beautiful, Ruth Ware offers up another taut and intense read in The Woman in Cabin 10—one that will leave even the most sure-footed reader restlessly uneasy long after the last page is turned.

Editorial Reviews

Review

“A classic "paranoid woman" story with a modern twist in this tense, claustrophobic mystery...The cast of characters, their conversations, and the luxurious but confining setting all echo classic Agatha Christie; in fact, the structure of the mystery itself is an old one: a woman insists murder has occurred,everyone else says she's crazy. But Lo is no wallflower; she is a strong and determined modern heroine who refuses to doubt the evidence of her own instincts.” (Kirkus Reviews)

“Ware’s follow up to her best selling debut, In a Dark, Dark Wood, is a gripping maritime psychological thriller that will keep readers spellbound. The intense final chapters just might induce heart palpitations.” (Library Journal, Starred Review)

"Ruth Ware is back with her second hair on the back of your neck tingling tale." (Marie Claire)

"[The Woman in Cabin 10] generate[s] a dark, desperate tension that will appeal to Ware’s and Gillian Flynn’s many fans. This is the perfect summer read for those seeking a shadowy counter to the sunshine." (Booklist, Starred Review)

“A fantasy trip aboard a luxury liner turns nightmarish for a young journalist in The Woman in Cabin 10, the pulse quickening new novel by Ruth Ware, author of In a Dark, Dark Wood.” (O Magazine)

"[A] snappy thriller set on the high seas… The first chapter will grab your attention, force it against a wall and hold it there until the end.” (Associated Press)

"Ruth Ware’s The Woman in Cabin 10 is an atmospheric thriller as twisty and tension filled as her 2015 debut, In a Dark, Dark Wood... The novel’s tone is dark and claustrophobic as Lo continues her search for the woman even though someone is trying to stop her — maybe even kill her." (The Washington Post)

"Haunting and absurdly suspenseful." (PureWow)

"The Woman in Cabin 10 bucks the trend of disappointing follow ups, and is every bit as taut and provocative as the earlier book." (Independent)

"With a flawed but likeable heroine, and a fast moving plot, it makes for a stylish thriller." (Sunday Mirror)

“A twisted and suspenseful mystery that entangles friendship, identity and memory with a possible murder…. Subtly tips its hat to authors such as Agatha Christie and Dorothy L. Sayers” (Metro)

“With a churning plot worthy of Agatha Christie, and fresh on the heels of her bestselling thriller In a Dark, Dark Wood, Ruth Ware twists the wire on readers’ nerves once again. “Cabin 10” just may do to cruise vacations what “Jaws” did to ocean swimming. You’ll be afraid to go out on the water.” (StarTribune)

"This beach read thriller has sun, suspense, and goes well with SPF." (TheSkimm)

"Ware does something more than write the next Gone Girl or The Girl on the Train, even if she writes in that wheelhouse. Ware puts her own stamp on the genre... The Woman in Cabin 10 is good: it’s creepy, it’s frustrating, and it’s interesting. It brings elements of our current fixations into the realm of the thriller/mystery in the best possible way."

The Woman in Cabin 10

- CHAPTER 1 -

FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 18

The first inkling that something was wrong was waking in darkness to find the cat pawing at my face. I must have forgotten to shut the kitchen door last night. Punishment for coming home drunk.

“Go away,” I groaned. Delilah mewed and butted me with her head. I tried to bury my face in the pillow but she continued rubbing herself against my ear, and eventually I rolled over and heartlessly pushed her off the bed.

She thumped to the floor with an indignant little meep and I pulled the duvet over my head, but even through the covers I could hear her scratching at the bottom of the door, rattling it in its frame.

The door was closed.

I sat up, my heart suddenly thumping, and Delilah leaped onto my bed with a glad little chirrup, but I snatched her to my chest, stilling her movements, listening.

I might well have forgotten to shut the kitchen door, or I could even have knocked it to without closing it properly. But my bedroom door opened outward—a quirk of the weird layout of my flat. There was no way Delilah could have shut herself inside. Someone must have closed it.

I sat, frozen, holding Delilah’s warm, panting body against my chest and trying to listen.

Nothing.

And then, with a gush of relief, it occurred to me—she’d probably been hiding under my bed and I’d shut her inside with me when I came home. I didn’t remember closing my bedroom door, but I might have swung it absently shut behind me when I came in. To be honest, everything from the tube station onwards was a bit of a blur. The headache had started to set in on the journey home, and now that my panic was wearing off, I could feel it starting up again in the base of my skull. I really needed to stop drinking midweek. It had been okay in my twenties, but I just couldn’t shake off the hangovers like I used to.

Delilah began squirming uneasily in my arms, digging her claws into my forearm, and I let her go while I reached for my dressing gown and belted it around myself. Then I scooped her up, ready to sling her out into the kitchen.

But when I opened the bedroom door, there was a man standing there.

There’s no point in wondering what he looked like, because, believe me, I went over it about twenty-five times with the police. “Not even a bit of skin around his wrists?” they kept saying. No, no, and no. He had a hoodie on, and a bandanna around his nose and mouth, and everything else was in shadow. Except for his hands.

On these he was wearing latex gloves. It was that detail that scared the shit out of me. Those gloves said, “I know what I’m doing.” They said, “I’ve come prepared.” They said, “I might be after more than your money.”

We stood there for a long second, facing each other, his shining eyes locked on to mine.

About a thousand thoughts raced through my mind: Where the hell is my phone? Why did I drink so much last night? I would have heard him come in if I’d been sober. Oh Christ, I wish Judah was here.

And most of all—those gloves. Oh my God, those gloves. They were so professional. So clinical.

I didn’t speak. I didn’t move. I just stood there, my ratty dressing gown gaping, and I shook. Delilah wriggled out of my unresisting hands and shot away up the hallway to the kitchen, and I just stood there, shaking.

Please, I thought. Please don’t hurt me.

Oh God, where was my phone?

Then I saw something in the man’s hands. My handbag—my new Burberry handbag, although that detail seemed monumentally unimportant. There was only one thing that mattered about that bag. My mobile was inside.

His eyes crinkled in a way that made me think he might be smiling beneath the bandanna, and I felt the blood drain from my head and my fingers, pooling in the core of my body, ready to fight or flee, whichever it had to be.

He took a step forwards.

“No . . .” I said. I wanted it to sound like a command, but it came out like a plea—my voice small and squeaky and quavering pathetically with fear. “N—”

But I didn’t even get to finish. He slammed the bedroom door in my face, hitting my cheek.

For a long moment I stood, frozen, holding my hand to my face, speechless with the shock and pain. My fingers felt ice-cold, but there was something warm and wet on my face, and it took a moment for me to realize it was blood, that the molding on the door had cut my cheek.

I wanted to run back to bed, to shove my head under the pillows and cry and cry. But a small, ugly voice in my skull kept saying, He’s still out there. What if he comes back? What if he comes back for you?

There was a sound from out in the hall, something falling, and I felt a rush of fear that should have galvanized me but instead paralyzed me. Don’t come back. Don’t come back. I realized I was holding my breath, and I made myself exhale, long and shuddering, and then slowly, slowly, I forced my hand out towards the door.

There was another crash in the hallway outside, breaking glass, and with a rush I grabbed the knob and braced myself, my bare toes dug into the old, gappy floorboards, ready to hold the door closed as long as I could. I crouched there, against the door, hunched over with my knees to my chest, and I tried to muffle my sobs with my dressing gown while I listened to him ransacking the flat and hoped to God that Delilah had run out into the garden, out of harm’s way.

At last, after a long time, I heard the front door open and shut, and I sat there, crying into my knees and unable to believe he’d really gone. That he wasn’t coming back to hurt me. My hands felt numb and painfully stiff, but I didn’t dare let go of the handle.

I saw again those strong hands in the pale latex gloves.

I don’t know what would have happened next. Maybe I would have stayed there all night, unable to move. But then I heard Delilah outside, mewing and scratching at the other side of the door.

“Delilah,” I said hoarsely. My voice was trembling so much I hardly sounded like myself. “Oh, Delilah.”

Through the door I heard her purr, the familiar, deep, chainsaw rasp, and it was like a spell had been broken.

I let my cramped fingers loosen from the doorknob, flexing them painfully, and then stood up, trying to steady my trembling legs, and turned the door handle.

It turned. In fact it turned too easily, twisting without resistance under my hand, without moving the latch an inch. He’d removed the spindle from the other side.

Fuck.

Fuck, fuck, fuck.

I was trapped.

Thrilling and claustrophobic mystery

Reviewed in the United States on May 9, 2024

Verified Purchase

"The Woman in Cabin 10" by Ruth Ware is a thrilling, claustrophobic mystery that masterfully plays on the fears of isolation and entrapment. Set aboard a luxury cruise ship, the story follows Lo Blacklock, a journalist who believes she witnesses a murder in the cabin next door. However, all evidence suggests that nothing untoward has happened, plunging Lo—and the reader—into a deep sea of paranoia and suspense.

Ware's narrative is tight and fast-paced, evoking a palpable sense of dread that builds with each twist and turn of the ship and plot. The confined setting of the cruise ship adds a layer of intensity, making the story not only a mystery but also an exploration of the protagonist's psyche as she grapples with her own anxiety and reliability as a narrator.

Character development is a strong suit of Ware, who crafts complex personalities that are both flawed and relatable. Lo, in particular, is a compelling protagonist whose mental state provides a gripping, if sometimes frustrating, lens through which the story unfolds.

However, the novel's resolution may leave some readers divided. While some twists are satisfyingly unforeseen, others might feel a tad contrived or overly convenient. Despite this, "The Girl in Cabin 10" remains a solid recommendation for fans of psychological thrillers, delivering suspense, intrigue, and a host of memorable moments that will linger long after the final page is turned.

Unlikeable Characters, Great Plot

Reviewed in the United States on January 9, 2017

Verified Purchase

At the beginning, I would have definitely given this book two and a half--or possibly three-- stars. But it picked up pace towards the middle of the story, and the ending was so satisfying that I was compelled to give it a four. The story features Lo Blacklock, travel writer, who has just been given the assignment of her career: a chance to embark on a luxury five-star cruise to Norway with exclusive interviews with all of the glittering philanthropists, stars, and socialites on board. The first night, she borrows a tube of mascara from the woman in Cabin Ten. The second night, she hears screams and a huge splash from the veranda in that direction as something heavy is tossed overboard. The third night, she frantically begins questioning people around her as she expresses her concerns about what she has heard, and not one person takes her seriously. The cruise staff attempts to remonstrate her with the cold truth: that there has never been a guest in Cabin Ten. But Lo knows what she knows, and what she has seen and heard. And she has the borrowed object to prove it. Unless of course, her evidence is also gone. Similar to what I read from earlier reviews: the only thing that makes this book hard to read is that the main character is not easy to like. She struggles throughout the story with depression, anxiety, post tramautic stress syndrome, and alcoholism, none of which bothered me in the least, because it's relatable, and part of being human. It was also interesting to see how these issues unnecessarily affected her credibility as a witness, somewhat reminiscent of The Girl on the Train. But what actually bothered me was the protagonist's deeply negative and sometimes entitled outlook on everything and everyone; I think sometimes it was meant to be vaguely funny, but after awhile, it left a bit of a cloud over the story. Her responses to the people around her were consistently sharp and biting, and all of her perceptions critical, from start to finish. And the book is written through Lo's eyes, so that taking a step back from her outlook is hard to do. The other characters, likewise, are vaguely narcissistic and difficult to sympathize with. However, if you come into it knowing that, the rest of the book is fantastic. I loved Ruth Ware's first book "In a Dark, Dark Wood" because of its classic whodunnit mystery premise, and this one is no different. At least ten different characters rise in your mind as the main suspect throughout the story, and even in the last few chapters, I didn't see the conclusion coming. As a longtime mystery fan, it usually takes a lot for me to not be able to find the culprit, and this is one that I sadly, and thrillingly, was unable to unravel on my own. I love the hint of old fashioned flavor in Ware's writing style; both of her books reminded me of playing the board game Clue as a middleschooler, never knowing if Miss Violet or Colonel Mustard are innocent, or if the candlestick is what it seems. I will definitely be hoping for more by this author in the future, and I highly recommend this book as a good read for mystery fans. Be prepared though: it might make you not want to go on a cruise for a long, long time.

Imagine you have a friend...

Reviewed in the United States on August 18, 2016

Verified Purchase

Your friend-- let’s call her Debbie Downer-- is a claustrophobic, alcoholic, neurotic insomniac. She’s also a total screwup at her job, and honestly, not very bright. Her house was just broken into so you’re trying to cut her a break, but her nonstop complaining— it’s too hot, it’s too cold, the ceilings are too low, the room’s too small, my clothes smell, I’m too sleepy, I’m too hungry, I’m not hungry, I’m hungover, etc.— is getting to you. Plus there’s the counting to herself (One, Two, Three…!) and the constant, random weeping. She’s a hot mess.

Would you want to spend a lot of time hanging around her? Well, if you can stand to spend 352 pages with her, then you’ll love Lo Blacklock, the protagonist of this book.

I won’t go into a plot synopsis, others have done that already. I managed to solve the “mystery” 66% into the book (I’m on a Kindle), so kudos to the author for making the plot two-thirds difficult. As a reader it’s no fun being more clever than the protagonist.The only mystery to me was how the author was going to fill the other 33% of the book.

Some weird things in this book:

-In an early chapter, which I can only guess is used as a plot device by the author to introduce the boyfriend, Lo has a nonsensical argument with him on par with:

"You did it”
“No you did it”
“No you”
“No you”
“I love you”

and breaks up with him. I sat there thinking “What the hell did I just read?”

- At another point, during the cruise Lo locks herself in her cabin and spends a number of chapters trying to figure out how to get out. Ok, I made that up, but if it had happened, it wouldn’t have been out of place.

- Throughout, there was an absolute lack of modern communication on the luxury cruise Lo was on. No phone, no internet, like it’s a pirate ship from 1633. I’m no expert on Wifi at sea, but come on. The Bushmen in the Kalahari have iPhones at this point. It felt like a ruse to support the plot.

- And finally, the casual, illogical, loss of the evidence. It’s like Hercule Poirot saying, “Hey, I think I’ll leave the murder weapon right here, in this house full of suspects. Yeah, it’ll be here tomorrow when I come back for it. Not. worried. at. all.”

I know I’m being really hard on the author, but that’s because the critics’ reviews heightened my expectations by making the book out to be on par with The Usual Suspects, in terms of plot twists. It’s not. And that’s not the author’s fault. The book is a straight up mildly entertaining mystery, and not badly written, but there’s not a lot here to hang your hat on.

Could have been a 5 star read

Reviewed in the Netherlands on September 29, 2021

Verified Purchase

fter thouroughly enjoying In a Dark, Dark Wood and The Turn of the Key, I had high expectations for Cabin. And there is a very good story in here, but it is buried under a magnitude of characters, none of them likeable. The protagonist, Lo Blacklock, is a reporter for a travel magazine, and thus you would expect to encounter an intelligent, professional and articulate woman. Lo however seems to be stumbling everywhere, either drunk or seasick, incoherent, obnoxious and hysterical. She makes all the wrong and stupid decisions one could make and halfway I was hoping she would just fall of the railing, leaving the story to be told through another character. No such luck.
It's a pity because with a more likeable persona and fixing a few holes in the story, this could have been a 5 star read, now 2,5 at most.
