Obtaining Film Adaptation Rights

I am a screenwriter who also has an

independent production company. I

want to obtain the rights to a book

and adapt it for the screen. The

author is deceased and the book is no

longer in publication. The publishing

company who originally published the

book is no longer in existence, or

rather was sold to another company.

I have no idea where to begin at this

point and any assistance would be

greatly appreciated!
