The Hook

Crime novelist Ben Castelano gets a taste of the real thing when he runs into old chum Brice Cantor. Both men are writers, but are worlds apart in terms of financial success. Ben is struggling to find a publisher for his most recent novel, while Brice's books are bestsellers. But beneath the well-heeled exterior, Brice has problems of his own. This leads to an offer: He'll publish Ben's book under his own name and split the money -- if Ben kills his wife.
