Caught on Film

"Imagine a novel written with the strung-out intensity of a Dennis Hopper, the rapier-like cultural critique of a Thomas Pynchon, and the serio-comic word-play of a George Carlin and you might begin to have some idea of Tom Seigel's Caught on Film."

          -Michael White, author of Soul Catcher and Beautiful Assassin

Brandon Newman, the only child to survive the Oklahoma City bombing and now the latest box office heartthrob, has his pick of the best scripts in Hollywood, but the part he wants most is the one he can't have—the troubled teenage misfit famously banned from the big screen by the late J.D. Salinger. Determined to outwit and outhustle a legal trust charged with enforcing the author's copyright, Brandon plots an illicit, underground production with the help of an unlikely band of coconspirators, including a bar owner he met in rehab, a precocious prep-school teenager, and a doomsday-prepping mobster.
