Quote:
"The seeds of the project were sown when, over dinner one night, [Gail] Harvey asked Canadian author Linwood Barclay whether he had any books that weren't currently under option with Hollywood producers. There was one novel that remained on the market, he told her, and the pair began discussions about how they could bring his 2011 novel Never Saw It Coming to the screen. Barclay then worked closed with Harvey as he penned the screenplay."
