Beverly Hills Noir explores the city’s true crime history, delving deep inside cases that made headlines, scandals that engulfed Hollywood legends, and more strange-but-true tales that could only happen in the 90210.
Beverly Hills Noir chronicles an assortment of jaw-dropping true crime stories spanning the legendary city’s history, each with oh-so-90210 twists—including a high-profile murder mystery in the city’s most extravagant mansion, the daring exploits of a handsome cat burglar with movie star looks, a toxic Tinseltown love triangle that ended in gunplay, a brazen Rodeo Drive jewelry store holdup with tragically stunning finale, an Oscar-nominated actress on shoplifting spree and more—complete with major roles and countless cameos by Hollywood idols and cultural icons.
A gripping, century-long tour of the glamorous city’s shadowy underbelly through crimes and misdemeanors as over-the-top as the city itself, Beverly Hills Noir collects the kinds of stories you’d expect to be swapped if James Ellroy and Dominick Dunne had met Jackie Collins and Ryan Murphy for cocktails at the Polo Lounge. It’s Sunset Boulevard and Once Upon a Time … in Hollywood turned sordid, face-down-in-the-pool reality.
“Beverly Hills Noir is that perfect blend: wildly entertaining, fascinating, and informative. What a fun ride. I highly recommend it! Enjoy!”—Marcia Clark, attorney, former prosecutor and author of bestselling fiction and nonfiction
