Former ‘Blue Bloods’ writer Kevin Wade pens crime novel By WILL SHEELINE wsheeline@liherald.com

Kevin Wade, the screenwriter responsible for the Emmy-nominated drama “Blue Bloods” as well as films like “Meet Joe Black” and “Working Girl,” is embarking on a new chapter in his storytelling career. The seasoned writer, whose career spans theater, film, and television, is venturing into the world of detective fiction with his debut novel, “Johnny Careless.” Set on the North Shore of Long Island, the novel introduces Jeep Mullane, a local police chief whose investigation of the supposed drowning of an old friend leads him into the world of car theft. According to Wade, the story reflects his lifelong fascination with detective fiction and his decades of experience writing about

law enforcement. “I’ve always loved detective stories, police, crime, bounty hunter stories, all of that kind of stuff,” Wade said. “These were books where the story changed, but the geography and the protagonist usually stayed the same. It’s not like television, but it is in the sense that you can just pick up a new book and enjoy another adventure.” Wade’s career began in New York’s theater scene, where he wrote plays in his mid-20s, including the “Key Exchange.” Hollywood soon came calling, leading to his screenwriting debut with the 1988 romantic comedy “Working Girl.” Over the years, Wade worked on several other films, including Mr. Baseball, where he worked closely with actor Tom Selleck.
