Not a Very Good Idea
From The Guardian:
A Polish writer is on trial for murder after writing a crime novel in which he closely detailed the facts of a real-life killing.
Investigators claim Krystian Bala, 33, a travel writer, journalist and author, even sent them a copy of his popular novel Amok in which he gives a detailed account of a murder, in order to draw attention to it. But suspicious police thought his account too close to the murder of a man whose body was found near a weir on the river Oder in December 2000.
