Description

Set against the high-stakes backdrop of the international diamond trade, the novel follows Maurice Foxman, the aging but principled patriarch of a prominent diamond family. Foxman & Co. faces an existential threat when Maurice’s nephew is murdered in Africa and a powerful diamond syndicate, the IMM, inexplicably cuts off their supply of stones.
As Maurice fights to save his empire, he discovers he is a pawn in a larger geopolitical game. A plot is underway involving Soviet agents who aim to destabilize the global market and seize control of the industry. While Maurice’s own son proves weak and unreliable, his ambitious and talented niece, Ellie, rises to the occasion. Initially seduced by a handsome conspirator, Ellie must navigate betrayal, international intrigue, and family feuds to expose the scheme, secure her place as the company’s leader, and protect the family legacy.
