Doctor Palmer, a former pathologist, wrote a fictional book based on his real cases. In the book, the madman gets caught, but in reality he is still uncaught. After the book is released, Palmer's editor is kidnapped. Palmer soon is sent a present containing a page of his book, and a bone from his editor. Together with the police, Palmer tries to find his editor, who might still be alive. In addition, his own son becomes one of the main suspects. Written by Julian Reischl

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Shot in Toronto doubling for an unnamed American city, because 90s Canadian productions loved pretending they weren't Canadian.
This belongs to a weird micro-genre of 'author becomes target of their own creation' thrillers that peaked with Basic Instinct and immediately curdled into stuff like this.
