⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “Move over Stephanie Plum—Taylor Hunter is the new queen of cozy adventure.”

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "A smart, funny, suspenseful start to a series that already feels like a classic. CB Wilson has struck gold—or should I say diamonds?"

💎💎💎💎💎 "A sassy sleuth, a diamond-detecting dog, and enough twists and turns to keep you guessing, this is one whodunit you won’t want to miss!"

Every diamond has a story… but some are worth killing for

When the legendary Fire Diamond—a rare orange stone valued in the millions—vanishes, recovery specialist Taylor “Hunter” is hired to retrieve it.

There’s just one problem. Her twin sister is the prime suspect. And Hunter’s father? A world-class jewel thief whose shadow still stretches across every vault and auction house in the country.

Hunter built her career recovering stolen diamonds—the very kind her father perfected stealing. She knows the tricks. The disguises. The timing. The lies.

Her search drags her deep into Arizona’s historic mining country, where abandoned shafts hide more than dust and a century-old secret ties the missing gem to a long-buried fortune. As threats escalate and someone begins tracking her every move, Hunter realizes this theft wasn’t random.

It was personal.

Now she must decide who to trust—her instincts, her training… or her relatives—before the diamond disappears into the black market and the person hunting her decides she knows too much.

Because in a family built on secrets, loyalty can be the most dangerous illusion of all.

Perfect for fans of Daniel Silva and Steve Berry and readers who love high-stakes adventure featuring a fearless heroine forced to choose between justice and those they love.
