Lo Blacklock is about to get her chance. She’s a journalist that has worked at a travel magazine for the past 10 years. To date, her duties mostly involve research and assembling articles since her boss is usually the one travelling to exotic locales.

MY RATING: 3.75/5 STARS 

I was given a complimentary copy from the publisher in exchange for an honest review.

I loved Ruth Ware's The death of Mrs. Westaway, so I decided to read this even though some friends hadn't liked it. I can see why. If you have anxiety, claustrophobia, sleep deprivation, or feel stress when people drink too much and don't get to work/get their work done, you will feel unneeded stress reading this, especially during the less interesting first half of this book.

By the second half of this book, it got much more interesting and I was definitely hooked. If you are feeling a little fr

Lo Blacklock is a travel journalist covering the inaugural trip of the niche cruise ship the Aurora on its trip from England to Norway. The ship only has 10 cabins. Lo becomes concerned when the woman in the cabin next to hers disappears, possibly murdered. I figured out who the bad guy was fairly easily and was rather annoyed by Lo. I also thought the ending was kind of ridiculous. I didn't like the audio book narrator. I found all of her accents to be annoying and distracting from the story. ...more
