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. Her boss is indisposed and Lo is offered the opportunity of a week on a small, intimate luxury cruise ship.
On Lo’s first night on board, she is awoken by noises in the next cabin (cabin 10) followed by a splash. Lo is convinced that someone was thrown overboard. Lo alerts security to her concern but all passengers and staff are accounted for and the ship sails on. Everyone assumes it was a hallucination in response to a recent traumatic event.
The plot is filled with surprising twists and turns. Everyone seems to be a suspect at one time or another. One of Lo’s fellow passengers may be a cold-blooded killer and she is trapped on a small, and very claustrophobic, ship. If nothing else, this has convinced me that I never want to be on an “intimate” cruise like this.
