This went in a more interesting direction than I expected, turning out to be less of a Strangers on a Train kind of deal and more of a twisty, psychological thriller delivered as a two-hander by Harris and Dormer. It still exists in the airport book level of thriller (though it is an original screenplay) but if you're a fan of the actors, this is a solid watch.
