Scott Huver: Beverly Hills Noir Volume Two, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Beverly Hills Noir Volume Two is the second instalment of the outrageous true crime history of 90210, delivering even more jaw-dropping stories, celebrity intrigue, and strange, but true, tales that could only happen in Beverly Hills.

Welcome back to glamorous Beverly Hills, the haute, heady, Hollywood-adjacent capital of conspicuous consumption, where it seems like everyone who populates this uber wealthy city is making a killing---sometimes literally.

As the first volume of Beverly Hills Noir revealed, living the Good Life can occasionally lead to a Very Bad End. That only scratched the surface of the devilish dark side of the world's most famous zip code. Here's another treasure trove of twenty-four-karat true crime tales as outrageously over the top as the gilded city itself, jam-packed with featured roles and cameos by Hollywood idols and cultural icons.

This latest deep dive into the nefarious side of 90210 includes the invasion of a silent superstar's estate by his starlet protégé, a faux hold-up at Rodeo Drive's furrier to stars, the brazen kidnapping plot punctured by two dead bodies on a doorstep, a corporate rivalry over soap that turned filthy with murder, the pop star outed after seeking a pickup in a public restroom, a sheik's pornographic mansion makeover, and a mugger's mad dash through an Oscar party packed with celebrity scandal-makers---told in all their glamorous luster and gritty, face-down-in-the-swimming-pool reality.
