First time to post here - Hi!

I'm about to drive myself crazy trying to think of this author. I only read one book by him - it was a mystery, but funny. He reminded me of Carl Hiaasen (but wasn't him, obviously).

The main guy worked at a newspaper, and somehow started looking for a missing woman. The story was about the music business, and someone stealing a song from someone else. I believe the name of the book was actually the name of the stolen song.

But all kind of crazy things happened, including the protag. getting out of a sticky situation by hitting someone that was trying to kill him over the head with a frozen iguana he kept in his freezer.

Does this ring a bell with anyone?
 
*sigh* I'm losing it - it IS Carl Hiaasen!!

The book is Basket Case. I don't know why I was thinking it was someone else. Argh. Thanks for your help!
