Synopsis
New York Times-bestselling author Stuart Woods returns with the sequel to The Prince of Beverly Hills-a page-turning novel of murder, political intrigue, and betrayal set in 1940s Hollywood, the era of the 'Red Scare,' when almost anyone could be a suspect.
Rick Barron, a former Beverly Hills cop, has risen to head of production of Centurion Pictures, and he's at the top of his game. But tensions are high in Hollywood, and when Rick's friend Sidney Brooks, a successful screenwriter, receives a subpoena from the House Un-American Activities Committee, Rick isn't surprised. The witch hunt is spreading, and those under investigation are Rick's closest friends-even his wife, the glamorous starlet Glenna Gleason.
Set in a time of suspicion and uncertainty, Beverly Hills Dead is Stuart Woods's best novel yet-a fast-paced and sexy thriller full of the nail-biting twists and startling turns that Woods fans always expect.

Reviews
Its hit or miss with Stuart Woods. Some of his books are interesting and great characters and others, like this one, disappointing. This had a good premise 1940 Hollywood, murder and the blacklisting that went on during that era, but not enough plot and storyline. I wouldn't recommend it and just say dont bother
I enjoyed this book immensely and wasn't disappointed. Read reviews that it wasn't as good as The Prince of Beverly Hills. I totally disagree. The book was every bit as interesting. Would recommend reading this book.
