For Whom the Minivan Rolls

Meet one of the most unlikely new detectives in crime fiction, wise-cracking former investigative reporter and aspiring screenwriter Aaron Tucker, who agrees to help wealthy New Jersey businessman Gary Beckwirth find his missing wife, Madlyn, in screenwriter Jeffrey Cohen's antic first novel, For Whom the Minivan Rolls: An Aaron Tucker Mystery. A mysterious minivan, a mayoral election and murder keep our hero hopping when he'd prefer to be stay-at-home dad. Given the author's Hollywood connections-prominent among the book's many blurbs is one from Larry Gelbart-the chances for a film option appear excellent.
