The Larry David Code

FACT: In reality, Larry David had set up dates to do an interview with me (the author) for a writers' magazine ... twice. And twice he canceled the day before each, so ... FICTION: Using The Da Vinci Code as a template for an absurdist novel, I find Larry 'murdered,' and all evidence and circumstances point to me. Worse, as I attempt to escape from the Beverly Hills Celebrity Police and a consortium of the most powerful men in the world, there is a plague of great comedy writers being killed...Chuck Lorre, James Brooks, Ricky Gervais and others. On the run and trying to solve the murders, I end up traipsing the Hollywood and French countryside where I discover this is about something bigger and more criminal that society has ever faced.
