Stewart Hoag and Lulu Synopsis: The first Hoagy & Lulu novel is The Man Who Died Laughing by David Handler. Hoagy’s debut novel made him a big deal in NYC. Suddenly, everyone wanted to be his friend and he got to travel the cocktail circuit with his wife, Merilee, and dog, Lulu. But when the second novel didn’t write itself, his friends, money and wife all went away. All he had left was Lulu. He gets an opportunity to work as a ghostwriter – not his first choice for a job, but better than nothing. His first job is to write for an old comedian named Sonny Day whose heyday was thirty years ago. Since then, Sonny has become poor and bitter and all that’s left for him to do is to write his memoir. Hoagy and Lulu head to Hollywood for an easy time, but instead all Hoagy gets is the finger pointed at him for Day’s murder.
