This fast paced and thought provoking thriller is about the reality of Blood Diamonds and their place in the lives of greedy and corrupt men.
Fomenting global conflict is child's play to them and anyone who gets in their way is simply collateral damage, as they pay off politicians and destablize countries in their lust for power and wealth.
So why is Colette, a successful author in New York, interested in these glittering gems; and why is her ex-husband Basil Mortimer, an investment banker, determined to harm her.
Is it because Basil is part of a Cartel that is involved in this depraved trade? Or is it because Colette is trying to build a life with Emile, an architect she has met.
As Basil unravels and Colette's life is threatened, she and Emile stay one step ahead of him and the Cartel which moves to protect their interest in this lucrative trade. The story takes the reader from New York to Tel Aviv, Russia, Monte Carlo, Africa and Europe highlighting the enormous contrast between those who exist in untold misery to provide these tiny stones for those who can afford them.
Will Colette's friend who is an ex-CIA agent; and Emile's mysterious influential Uncle; be able to save her from Basil and the Cartel?
"I thoroughly enjoyed the read and recommend it to anyone wanting to read a book of real substance and quality. Here is your chance to catch a rising star." - Dennis Waller, the successful author of Reflections.
