Le Faucon à Hollywood (1944)
Le détective amateur Tom Lawrence voulait passer quelques jours de vacances reposants à Hollywood, mais est vite amené à revoir ses projets. En effet, il se lance dans une enquête sur le meurtre d'un acteur de cinéma. Les suspects potentiels ne manquent pas : l'ancienne épouse de l'acteur, costumière, qui entretient une liaison avec un réalisateur, une jeune starlette française, un producteur, et même un gangster new-yorkais. Le moins curieux de l'affaire n'est pas que le cadavre, découvert par Tom après qu'il a entendu le coup de feu mortel, a brièvement disparu avant d'être retrouvé. Le Faucon est aidé dans son enquête par un chauffeur de taxi et quelques policiers maladroits...
