Default "Dream Town" by David Baldacci.
Request Rejected

Enjoying this one so far. It covers Hollywood and Las Vegas in the early 1950s from the point of view of a private investigator looking into a murder and the disappearance of a female screenwriter.

3rd in a series. If you enjoy 1950 private eye noir, it's pretty good.

I enjoy the Memory Man and Carmel Club series the most. How many books does he write per year?

Does not seem to be a large number of books. He takes his time and does not seem to have a bunch of co-authors.

His production seems to have increased. Wonder if he is using ghost writers but still greatly enjoy his books

Good read ......just finished it the other day. Baldacci is a great writer. I also greatly enjoy W.E.B. Griffin, Lee Child and Vince Flynn.

W.E.B. Griffin died over three years ago. Naturally his best series was The Corps.
