From the author of The Dragon's Treasure and The Vanishing, comes a new History Hunter mystery about the Hope Diamond.

Over the centuries, the jinxed jewel has crossed oceans and continents, passing from thieves to commoners, kings and queens. Though immensely valuable, the diamond's potency for bad luck is said to have its origins in an ancient curse. But are the dark meanings bestowed on ancient artefacts simply superstition? Or could a diamond truly leave behind a trail of misfortune...

Join the History Hunter on a journey back in time as he sets out to untangle myth from fact, and trace the truly remarkable life of a legendary diamond.
