“Hilarious and philosophical . . . His first novel, a murder mystery, has the same dark humor and cynical insider’s take as the fiction of Elmore Leonard.”
—People
“With a deft plot, an insider’s eye, and considerable charm, Steven Bochco resurrects everything we loved about Columbo into his own brand of Hollywood Murder Mystery. Death by Hollywood left me laughing out loud.”
—ROBERT CRAIS
“Slick-as-silk fiction . . . The book is fast, fun, sexy, and delivers plenty of inside dope on movie stars and their wacky lives. . . . As smooth and rich as the name-brand Chardonnays preferred by many of the book’s fabulously conflicted Tinseltown characters.”
—Publishers Weekly
“A vulgar, sex-filled romp—in the best sense: good, nasty fun.”
—Kirkus Reviews

“It is obvious . . . that Bochco understands how ‘the business’ works. . . . the sting of truth.”
—Los Angeles Times
