Try a noir thriller written to a specific music background  - my own 
SLAUGHTER MUSIC (Foul Play Press in America, Allison & Busby in UK).
The hero is a novice hitman obsessed with baroque opera (not as highbrow 
as it may sound: Handel, Telemann, Purcell etc.) and the scenes in the 
book are littered with scraps and excerpts.  It screams out to be filmed, 
of course, with a soundtrack of entirely baroque music behind the present 
day urban violence.

Interested, Hollywood?

COUNT ME OUT is published as a paperback original in the UK 
by Serpent's Tail, and in America by Foul Play (Spring 97).
There is, of course, lots more news on my web site:
