About This Book

A journalist frames a narrative about a far-reaching criminal network behind jewel thefts. A returning man and his sister recount voyages aboard a yacht and encounters that point toward a mysterious jewel-laden ship. The story traces searches across coasts and islands, hidden caves and villas, arrests, and a woman's confession that ties to the cargo. Pursuit culminates in a daring boarding of the vessel, revelations about conspirators, rescues and betrayals, and a final reckoning that resolves the criminal mystery.
