DATE OF RELEASE: 27 JAN 2026

Claire Fitzroy was just trying to get home her when her train from Manchester to London was hijacked by a group of armed men. In one terrifying moment she faced the starkest of choices: to stand back. To fight back.

And maybe to die either way. Claire chose to fight back. The middle-aged art lecturer led a squad of passengers who, against all odds, overcame the hijackers and saved hundreds of lives.

But what looks like heroism in the heat of the moment can play out very differently in the courts and the eyes of the public. Especially when you have the blood of two men on your hands. Selfless and quick-thinking.

Attention-seeking vigilante. Unrepentant murderer. Whichever she is, Claire is finally now sharing her story of that morning on the 10:12.

But is it the whole story? A breathtaking thriller where nothing is as it seems and saving the day is only the beginning, The 10:12 is the perfect read for fans of Sarah Vaughan, Catherine Ryan Howard and Ava Glass.
