The only thing Taylor Kincaid enjoys more than diamonds is the challenge of stealing them, at which she excels like few others in the world. So for Taylor, there’s no resisting the double allure of snatching the elusive Blue Star diamonds from the South American stronghold of the murderous Morales terrorist organization. The heist goes down without a hitch. Until Taylor discovers she has made off with more than she bargained for, namely the secret security-system codes that provide access to a South African diamond mine–packed with enough gems to sink a battleship. Suddenly, Taylor’s no longer just an ultrachic freelance jewel thief, but a reluctant player in a high-stakes cat-and-mouse game against elite global trouble-shooters and bloodthirsty terrorists.
