The Rick Barron series by Stuart Woods takes readers back to mid-century Hollywood. The Prince of Beverly Hills (2004) introduces Rick Barron, a detective working in Beverly Hills during the golden age of the movie studios. The follow-up, Beverly Hills Dead (2008), picks up during the McCarthy era.
