A note for parents
This is an adult psychological thriller centered on a woman's unreliable account of witnessing a murder at sea, featuring gaslighting, psychological manipulation, and an atmosphere of escalating dread. The plot involves violence, heavy drinking, and themes of paranoia and trauma that are designed to unsettle readers. While there is no graphic gore, the psychological horror and mature themes make this unsuitable for younger teen readers; it is best suited for mature teens and adults who enjoy dark suspense.

Travel magazine writer Lo Blacklock has just been given the assignment of a lifetime: one week on a luxury cruise with only a handful of cabins. The sky is clear, the waters calm, and the elite guests jovial as the exclusive cruise ship, the Aurora, begins her voyage in the picturesque North Sea. At first, Lo’s voyage is perfect, with a plush cabin, elegant dinner parties, and plenty of relaxation. But as the week wears on, frigid winds whip the deck, gray skies fall, and Lo witnesses what she can only describe as a dark and terrifying nightmare: a woman being thrown overboard. The problem? All passengers remain accounted for—and so, the ship sails on as if nothing has happened, despite Lo’s desperate attempts to convey that something has gone terribly, terribly wrong…
