Ruth Ware‘s ‘blisteringly good’ (The Observer) thriller One by One has been reviewed by Woman’s World as a captivating ‘locked-room thriller’.

In the article, which you can read here, the magazine’s readers wrote:

‘This was a spine-tingling thriller from the get-go. As always with a Ruth Ware novel it was set in a fabulous location that gets cut off from access to the outside world when they need it most. I didn’t know who the killer was until it was being revealed and I was blown away by the extra secrets we didn’t know. Ruth does a fantastic job building up the suspense and she pulls you in deeper and deeper!’

Snow is falling in the exclusive alpine ski resort of Saint Antoine, as the shareholders and directors of Snoop, the hottest new music app, gather for a make or break corporate retreat to decide the future of the company. At stake is a billion-dollar dot com buyout that could make them all millionaires, or leave some of them out in the cold.

The clock is ticking on the offer, and with the group irrevocably split, tensions are running high. When an avalanche cuts the chalet off from help, and one board member goes missing in the snow, the group is forced to ask—would someone resort to murder, to get what they want?
