Book excerpt: Inheriting a priceless diamond leaves a young woman at the center of a secret war reaching back to WWII in this international suspense novel. The largest uncut diamond in the world, the Minstrel’s Rough is little more than legend. Since 1548, it has been in the Pepperkamp family, handed down from one keeper to another. Now concert pianist Juliana Fall has inherited its splendor—and, unwittingly, its legacy of danger. Juliana’s mother wishes she could bury her memories of the Nazi occupation of the Netherlands. But Juliana’s safety is now entangled in the secrets of the past. For there are others who seek the Minstrel’s Rough. A U.S. senator will risk his career to claim its value. A former Nazi collaborator insists it is his destiny to possess it. And a Vietnam war hero turned journalist is chasing the story of the century. Now Juliana has only two choices: uncover the past before they do—or cut and run.
