The Special Investigator team of Matt Diamond and Natasha Cutter had returned to their new office in Beverly Hills California and were going over a large list of potential clients when one caught their eye. They had received a call from Ms. Gloria Goldstein regarding the murder of her parents and the theft of a large twenty-carat light pink diamond from their jewelry store. The police had been of little help and she was most anxious for them to investigate the tragedy. Although the event began in Beverly Hills, the location changed quickly to Johannesburg South Africa and meant that the globe traveling team would once more return to the same country where they had been in their previous case. The hunt for the theft of the diamond and the murder of Benjamin and Rebecca Goldstein had to begin at the original source, the antique studio of Martin Clause in Johannesburg. He was the first one to purchase, what he later called The Empress diamond, from a local black man, for $500,000 and sold it to the Goldsteins for a solid $1,000,000 a few days later. The Empress was the largest light pink diamond ever found in the world and was a chance fi ne in Tanzania. Although vastly underpriced and could be worth millions more, the only place it could demand its real value was in the United States and the Goldsteins were the way to get it to the American market. Entering into the theft and murders were three former American Special Forces veterans and their mission was the pursuit of the Empress. At the same time, there was a sinister figure behind all of this with a code name of THE RED FOX that would pay any cost to obtain the Empress. His interest in the Empress was to obtain it for a billionaire, Sir Fredrick Marsh, who wanted it as a birthday gift for his wife. It was now up to Matt Diamond and Natasha Cutter to follow the trail of the Deadly Diamond. A trail that would include the deaths of several others and a diamond that many would believe was cursed. The intrigue of who has it now is an exciting trip and the surprise ending will get the reader out of his seat with the strange twist of faith.
