S1·E15 – Murder by the Book

When popular mystery novelist John Clayton's career begins to wane, he steals a clever plot written by an amateur writer who has since passed away. However, Clayton's scheme unexpectedly goes awry when his plagiarized story is discovered to be the blueprint for a real life unsolved murder for which he is now considered to be the number one suspect.
