Ticket To Hollywood

In Ticket to Hollywood, the second of 11 comic novels featuring cab driver Brendan Murphy, a.k.a "Murph," a young woman on the way to a showing of The Great Gatsby leaves her purse behind in Murph's Rocky Mountain Taxi Cab #127--and then goes missing. Murph finds himself confronted by police and loses his job. He becomes entangled with filmmakers and makes his way to Los Angeles in search of the lost woman and in desperate need to restore his reputation and regain normalcy, which in Murph's case means doing as little as possible.
