The film is being adapted from "Robert B. Parker's Wonderland", written by Ace Atkins. The book is part of the Spenser Series - named after a fictional character in a series of detective novels initially written by the American mystery writer Robert B. Parker and later by Ace Atkins.

Long acknowledged as the dean of AMERICAN CRIME fiction, Parker was named Grand Master of the Edgar Awards in 2002 by the Mystery Writers of America, an honor shared with earlier masters such as Alfred Hitchcock and Ellery Queen.
