The Woman in Cabin 10 is based on the 2016 psychological thriller novel by Ruth Ware, which follows journalist Laura "Lo" Blacklock on an assignment aboard a luxurious cruise ship. The central mystery begins when Lo, already dealing with recent trauma, believes she witnesses a woman being thrown overboard from a neighboring cabin.

The novel heavily uses the narrator trope, using Lo’s known struggles with anxiety and medication to cast doubt on her claims, making the reader constantly question her sanity and perception. Simon Stone’s 2025 film adaptation maintains the thrilling high-seas premise but makes notable changes within the plot, which contrasts with that in the novel.

For example, Stone removed or minimized Lo’s mental health and alcohol issues from the source material, emphasizing a sharp critique of class and power. The film highlights how the yacht's wealthy and privileged elite attempt to dismiss Lo's evidence merely because she is an outsider, giving Ware's original, effective criminal framework a more progressive, modern, and political edge.
