It certainly checks many similar boxes: it's very much about writers and writing, and there's some murder mystery to it as well. Zackarias Levin is laid off from his work, and decides to make money by writing a novel about a murder case he was involved in 12 years ago. Famous author Leo Stark disappeared, and Zack's friend was found guilty.
