US Treasury Agents Charlie Carr and Jack Kelly, investigating a counterfeiting ring, are tipped off by Detective Travis Bailey of the L.A. police ?a cool, ruthless cop with some strange tastes in sex and women ?who warns them of a plot to murder their prime witness. Unwittingly, they are involved in a phony stake-out in which Kelly is seriously wounded.

Deeply suspicious and determined to avenge his partner, Carr puts his life and career on the line in order to build a case against Bailey, and sets out to prove that he is the mastermind behind a series of robberies from the area's wealthy residents. Carr's mission draws him into the depths of moneyed Beverly Hills, as well as into the underworld of have-nots, hungry for a piece of the Rolls-Royce action.

TO DIE IN BEVERLY HILLS is a masterly, original and harrowing thriller. Gerald Petievich once again successfully demonstrates both his talent for convincing characterization and his inside knowledge of the U.S. Secret Service.
