Odd, since Cary Grant starred in Hitchcock's 1955 film To Catch a Thief, based on a book by David Dodge. Oh, wait, you said the book is set in the '40s, not written then. I guess the author is making an homage to the film in some way.
Kaminsky has a series of private eye novels set in 1940s Hollywood, each one involving stars of the time (Humphrey Bogart, Bette Davis, etc), sometimes with titles alluding to their movies.
Correct but I didn't help matters by incorrectly naming the book in my orignal post! It's actually called To Catch A Spy (not thief) and is obviously a play on the title of that movie - Grant is working for British Intelligence in the novel. I was obviously thinking of the movie when I previously posted.

So who could play Cary Grant in the DS9R?!
