Stuart Woods' fans get to go back to 1940s Hollywood with Rick Barron in Beverly Hills Dead. This time he has to deal with a blacklisted writer, a dead actress, and a rising star.

I have read all of Wood's books. I enjoyed this one, but I really want to go back and read the ones about Hollywood again. It is nice to see them as young stars just starting out.

Very nice! A bit of history about the Hollywood communist blacklisting is woven into the murder of an up and coming star. You find yourself liking some characters because they try to help those who were unfairly singled out when all of a sudden you find a streak of homophiobia. Then you see what happens to someone who was unfairly accused of murder. People can be hateful.
