The Woman in Cabin 10 by Ruth Ware. Scout Press, an imprint of Simon & Schuster, 2016. Adult fiction.Lo Blacklock thinks it will be a career advantage as a travel writer to sail on the very exclusive yacht Aurora. While her own life has been careening sideways lately, she finds herself completely wrapped up in a mystery soon after the ship sails. Lord Bullmer and his young wife, Anne, and several other guests provide much to wonder about...and who is the young woman in Cabin 10 and where has she gone? Was she there at all or is it Lo's imagination?
The atmosphere is captured well with lots of fog, splashes, and small spaces. Ware makes each of the characters distinctive so it's easy to keep up with identities of guests and staff. The only downside to the book is a caveat to read it on dry land! You may not sleep at all if you take this tale on a cruise!
