Geologist Samantha Carlson loves a challenge, and it's a
good thing, because chasing down formations that will yield
diamonds and other gems takes her into rough territory.
When Patrick Kerrigan, president of Gem-Star, hires her to
go into the jungles of the Democratic Republic of Congo and
find the location of a diamond vein, she does a little
research and then accepts the job.
Travis McNeil, a former Navy SEAL, is tasked with keeping
Samantha safe, and to do so, he hires a team with a variety
of skills to protect the expedition. Both Travis and
Samantha have a strong history of tackling difficult
terrain in hostile countries, but neither are prepared for
what happens in the Congo.
From one breathtaking, life-threatening scene to the next,
you'll feel like you're watching an adventure movie with a
less than sure outcome. Is Kerrigan the one putting his own
team's lives in danger? Will they ever be safe from the
killers trying to learn the location of the diamond vein?
What a terrific read! Samantha is cool under fire (just the
kind of brave, gutsy woman we all wish we could be!) and
McNeil, well, he's a former Navy SEAL. Courageous,
knowledgeable and tough as they come. Buick's writing is
snappy and thorough; you aren't weighed down with the
logistics of a diamond expedition, but instead stay focused
on the energy and the danger. Prepare to curl up with this
book until the last page is turned.
