In this gripping follow-up to bestselling author Ruth Ware’s multi-million-copy mega-hit The
Woman in Cabin 10 – coming soon to Netflix starring Keira Knightley – Lo Blacklock returns
to attend the opening of a luxury hotel only to find herself in a white-knuckled race across
Europe. When the invitation to attend the press opening of a luxury Swiss hotel - owned by
reclusive billionaire Marcus Leidmann - arrives it’s like the answer to a prayer. Three years
after the birth of her youngest child Lo Blacklock is ready to re-establish her journalism
career but post-pandemic travel journalism is a very different landscape from the one she left
ten years ago. The chateau on the shores of Lake Geneva is everything Lo’s ever dreamed of
and she hopes she can snag an interview with Marcus. Unfortunately he proves to be even more
difficult to pin down than his reputation suggests. When Lo gets a late-night call asking her
to come to Marcus’s hotel room she agrees despite her own misgivings. She’s greeted however
by a woman claiming to be Marcus’s mistress and in life-or-death jeopardy. What follows
is a thrilling cat-and-mouse pursuit across Europe forcing Lo to ask herself just how much
she’s willing to sacrifice to save this woman…and if she can even trust her? Praise for Ruth
