Killer Diamonds--------pan macmillan
After decades in the spotlight as an Oscar-winning film star and
famous beauty, Vivienne Winter is one of the most recognizable women on
the planet. When
she decides to auction her multimillion dollar jewellery collection for
charity, there's no shortage of people eager to buy a piece of her
incredible history.
Young, ambitious Christine Smith is a jewellery expert working for a
centuries- old auction house. But in a world of aristocratic snobs, her
working-class origins are holding her back. She's desperate to secure
the sale of Vivienne Winter's gem collection: it's set to be the
biggest auction since Elizabeth Taylor's. However, meeting the
Hollywood star is just the first hurdle Christine has to jump.
Vivienne's handsome, spoilt and sexy playboy grandson Angel is the
heir to her fortune. The anger and resentment he feels towards his
grandmother for selling what he'd counted on as one day being his
inheritance sets in motion a series
of events with deadly consequences. Angel is totally unscrupulous, and
no one will emerge from his plotting unscathed. For it seems that
family secrets cut sharper than diamonds.
