<p style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0px;font:13px Verdana;"><span style="letter-spacing:0px;"><strong>A Delightful Sequel to Dirty Diamonds</strong></span></p> <p style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0px;font:13px Verdana;"><span style="letter-spacing:0px;">By <strong>A Customer</strong></span></p> <p style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0px;font:13px Verdana;"><span style="letter-spacing:0px;">This story really come to life under the capable pen of Betty Sullivan LAPierre. Jamey Schyler decides to sell some property she owns in Medford, Oregon. Under normal circunstances that would not be a problem but Jamey now lives in Rio De Janeiro and does not really want to come to the United States. She does return, however, only to complicate the property transfer necessitating appearance again. It would appear Jamey had been involved in a diamond heist some time before. Hawkman, a private investigator, had done some investigative work on that case as well. Her potential return has attracted the attention of not only Hawkman but someone else. Someone who feels they have a deadly score to settle with Jamey. Therein starts the delightful tale of intrigue and adventures where no one is who they appear to be. What happens next? You will need to read the story where you will definately be delighted at the twists and turns experienced with these characters. I give Diamonds aren't Forever the highest recommendation possible.</span></p> <p style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0px;font:13px Verdana;"><span style="letter-spacing:0px;"><strong></strong></span></p>
