By Jamie London

  The most popular show on television now is Mad Men. Not only are devotees captivated by the complex characters and the captivating storyline - they love the series insider look at the intriguing world of advertising. The crazy creatives, the back-stabbing and politics, the demanding clients.

Now theres a great new novel that provides readers that same entree to the world of advertising, but with a contemporary setting, a suspenseful plot and a heap of laughs along the way to a big surprise ending.

COMMERCIAL BREAK, by Keith Harmeyer, is the story of Adam Glassman, a worn out ad man who gives new meaning to the word “creativity” when he dreams up what would possibly be the biggest idea of his career - a way to swindle his contemptible clients out of millions and make a fresh start.

A chain of unpredicted obstacles makes the set up even more difficult than Adam imagined. There’s Harry Steck, an unsavory private investigator, hired by a disgruntled former employee to dig up dirt on Adamwith life-threatening consequences. And Samantha Winningham, the attractive young art director whose affair with Adam may cause the whole plan to fall apart, and land Adam in prison.

Eventually, the pieces are in place. All that is left on Super Bowl Sunday are a group of eager clients, a very nervous would-be con man, and one burning question : can he get away with it?

COMMERCIAL BREAK is MAD MEN meets THE PRODUCERS - unpredictable, fast-paced, and sometimes laugh-out-loud hilarious, with the type of out of the ordinary storyline and rich characters enjoyed by readers of Carl Hiaasen and Elmore Leonard.

COMMERCIAL BREAK is highly recommended reading. It just might be the best novel you read this year. Give it a look!

Movie Reviews Sherman’s Way

By Mr D Stevens

  This is a well made comedy drama for a journey of self discovery, focusing on a law student Sherman Black played by Michael Shulman who discovers a little about himself and life from a road trip with a two-time Olympian, Palmer played by James LeGros (Ally McBeal).

We meet Sherman with his girlfriend Marcy played by the lovely Lacey Chabert (she has grown quite a lot since the amazing child actress in Party of Five). Marcy has issues with Sherman for not taking charge and making his own decisions, it turns out every aspect of his life is being controlled by his powerful mother Evelyn, played by Donna Murphy (she still looks as ageless as she did with Patrick Stewart in Star Trek: Insurrection), she controls which law firm he chooses to do his internship, and is against him spending the summer with Marcy.

Sherman decides to go against the grain and prove to Marcy that he can make decisions for himself, and attempts to ignore his mother’s wishes by spending the summer with Marcy, without letting her know, he intends to just turn up at her door step, in the process he happens to bump into another fellow who helps him with his luggage, on both of them reaching Marcy’s front door, he is a little surprised to see Marcy kissing the guy, she eventually notices him and while he walks away in a rage, she follows him, but instead of apologising she says “this is what it seems” and tells him she is just trying to explore the different options life has in store for her.

In his anger Sherman decides to go back to the law internship his mother had arranged for him, and hails a driver to give him a lift, and Palmer arrives, fresh from an unfortunate performance at a car dealership, which he left with a classic vehicle nicknamed “The Rooster”, it turns out Palmer is estranged from his son, and would like to give him “The Rooster” as a graduation present, except his son graduated three years ago. After a short stop at a dinner, Sherman unfortunately finds out he has lost his wallet getting into Palmer’s car, and has no option but to phone his mother for financial assistance, however he takes this opportunity to stand his ground against her demands, and stays with Palmer to prove a point to himself that he can make his own decisions.

The two unlucky individuals find themselves paired together at the home of Palmer’s friend D.J., played by Enrico Colantoni (A.I.), and although they seem to be polar opposites; with Sherman intent on keeping a schedule, while Palmer on the other hand would rather take life as it comes, they end up learning from each other. While Palmer’s Rooster is being fixed Sherman does some shopping around the town for his supplies, and bumps into the lovely and odd Addy, played by Brooke Nevin (The 4400), they become friendly and Sherman asks her on a date, unfortunately he cannot drive, neither can he swim, and ends up having Palmer drive both of them around, where they end up in a lake, in a very comical scene.

It is a lovely romantic movie, many will enjoy.
