Many thanks to NetGalley and Simon & Schuster | Gallery Books | Scout Press for gifting me a digital ARC of the latest thriller by Ruth Ware, a follow-up to The Woman in Cabin 10. All opinions expressed in this review are my own - 4 stars!
Lo Blacklock receives an invitation to attend the press opening of a luxury Swiss hotel owned by a reclusive billionaire. The timing is perfect, as Lo is ready to get back to her journalism career after staying home with Covid and her two children. Lo is hoping to get an interview with the owner and resurrect her career. However, she soon finds herself once again in a cat-and-mouse pursuit and she may not make it back home.
The timeline in the book and real life are the same - it's been 10 years since The Woman in Cabin 10 was published. I will admit to not remembering book details even a month after I read them, let alone 10 years, but things did come back to me as I read this follow-up. Ruth Ware always writes compelling thrillers, and I was never sure who to trust in this book. I did think that Lo was naive in who she put her trust in after barely surviving her last adventure, but I felt her anxiety and stress. The luxury hotel settings were perfect and the chase across Europe was tense - this was a twisty thriller that kept my interest throughout.
