Deceptive? Trap

Lawson Russell (Cuba Gooding Jr.) is a lawyer and an aspiring writer who is critiquing a book for an elderly man who has died. Then Lawson comes into possession of a m-a-n-u-s-c-r-i-p-t for a novel about several lawyers being murdered. He publishes it as his own. His novel is a great success. Only one catch: these were real deaths, and only the author would have known the details. So, the writer must be the murderer. To further complicate things, there is no record of the dead novelist. We have seen this premise several times, but very few are this well-acted.
