About the Book The sale of the $20 million diamond was supposed to help poor people in Africa. Yet, the beautiful gem has an ugly secret behind it, which leads to a series of murders. Is it actually a blood diamond-and who will be its next victim? Book Synopsis Journalist-turned-amateur-sleuth Mimi Rosen is back with her father Max for another action-packed tale of murder and intrigue in New York Citys Diamond District. A Reverend from Africa has found a sparkling $20 million diamond that he hopes will free his continent from the scourge of blood diamonds. But this attempt to do good soon turns very bad. After the diamond is stolen and leads to a series of murders, Mimi discovers both the diamond and the Reverend have a less-than-sparkling history. Soon, Mimi is investigating a web of secrets involving a shady billionaire, a corrupt politician, Africas diamond fields, offshore companies, as well as an activist, filmmaker, computer genius, and police detective who may or may not be as noble as they appear. Is the prized gem actually a blood diamond?
