Differences From The Novel
While the film is generally faithful to Katzenbach's novel, it departs from it in a few key areas. Most notably, Ferguson in the novel does not kill Sullivan's parents; this plot device is used as a red herring. Also, the film omits a supporting character, Andrea Schaeffer, a homicide detective who helps in the investigation. Finally, the main character is named "Matt Cowart" in the novel, and is an investigative journalist rather than a college professor.

Famous quotes containing the word differences:
“What strikes many twin researchers now is not how much identical twins are alike, but rather how different they are, given the same genetic makeup....Multiples don’t walk around in lockstep, talking in unison, thinking identical thoughts. The bond for normal twins, whether they are identical or fraternal, is based on how they, as individuals who are keenly aware of the differences between them, learn to relate to one another.”
—Pamela Patrick Novotny (20th century)
