Seeking advice - new tv series screenplay idea

Hi,

I have written and published a new book. The story behind it could make a very good candidate for a TV series i think. It's the story of a foreign national - Toly - an accomplished scientists from Eastern Europe who's friend immigrated to the US and built a successful high-tech business in Silicon Valley, and is trying to persuade him to immigrate to the US as well to join his company, promising bright future. Toly finally gave up and agreed to try. He's is ending his life in Eastern Europe, burning all bridges, and with one way ticket he boards the plane to San Jose dreaming of the bright new life for him and his family of wife and kids... this is where all his troubles will soon begin - disillusionment, harsh new reality of adjusting to united states and to the new business, new friends and foes.. however there's no way back. He must adopt to the new life, reinvent himself to survive and build a new life..

Who can I show this too or chat with about this? I have no experience in screenwriting, just have this book and a great vision.

Thank you,

Serge
