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:
“The mother must teach her son how to respect and follow the rules. She must teach him how to compete successfully with the other boys. And she must teach him how to find a woman to take care of him and finish the job she began of training him how to live in a family. But no matter how good a job a woman does in teaching a boy how to be a man, he knows that she is not the real thing, and so he tends to exaggerate the differences between men and women that she embodies.”
—Frank Pittman (20th century)
