Hollywood Hills

　　The legendary Hollywood Hills are home to wealth, fame, andpower--passing through the neighborhood, it's hard not to get alittle greedy.　　LAPD veteran "Hollywood Nate" Weiss could take or leave theopulence, but he wouldn't say no to onscreen fame. He may get hisshot when he catches the appreciative eye of B-list director RudyRessler, and his troublemaking fiancée, Leona Brueger, theolder-but-still-foxy widow of a processed-meat tycoon. Nate triesto elude her crafty seductions, but consents to keep an eye ontheir estate in the Hollywood Hills while they're away.　　Also minding the mansion is Raleigh Dibble, a hapless ex-contrying to put the past behind him. Raleigh is all too happy to beset up for the job--as butler-cum-watchdog--by Nigel Wickland,Leona's impeccably dressed art dealer. What Raleigh doesn't realizeis that under the natty clothes and posh accent, Nigel has anefarious plan: two paintings hanging on the mansion's walls willguarantee them more money than they've ever seen.　　Everyone's dreams are just within reach--the only problem is,this is Hollywood. A circle of teenage burglars that the media hasdubbed The Bling Ring has taken to pillaging the homes of Hollywoodcelebutants like Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan, and when a pair ofdrug-addled young copycats stumbles upon Nigel's heist, that's justthe beginning of the disaster to come. Soon Hollywood Nate, surfercops Flotsam and Jetsam, and the rest of the team at HollywoodStation have a deadly situation on their hands.　　Hollywood Hills is a raucous and dangerous roller coaster ridethat showcases Joseph Wambaugh in vintage form.
