The Danger with Diamonds


About the Book:

Some secrets are worth keeping. Others are not.

When Lars Hendriks arranges to meet Marit Jansen in Vienna, he is hoping their friendship will blossom into romance. What he doesn’t expect is a surprise visit from his cousin Cole or the loose diamonds he brings with him.

As a CIA operative, Cole Bridger is used to uncertainty, but when his work takes him back to Vienna, he looks forward to reconnecting with Isabelle Roberts, the fellow agent he dated briefly before duty took him away from Austria. Unfortunately, his silence over the last few months has created a chasm he can’t cross without help. He barely takes a step toward repairing the damaged relationship when a brazen jewel heist seemingly links Cole, Lars, Marit, and Isabelle to the crime. The group is drawn into a deadly mystery, and once again, the treasures of Falcon Point are threatened. It doesn’t take long for them to realize they have stumbled upon something far bigger and more dangerous than a simple robbery. And someone on the inside knows it.


My Review: 

CIA agent, Cole Bridger, finds himself embroiled in a case that becomes much larger than he originally thought. I am glad he has help from fellow agent, Isabelle Roberts, his cousin, Lars Hendricks, and friend Marit Jansen, because he is going to need it!

There are so many things that made this story a page-turner where I felt like I was part of the story that I thought it would just be easier to list them.

Things I loved:

Vienna: the buildings, the history, the food

High octane adventure

Mystery and intrigue

Newly connected cousins

Romance- not just one couple, but two!

A ball with gorgeous gowns and cool stopping bad guys moves

Carriage rides

Roses

Toilet plunger weapon

While this is the second book in the Falcon Point Suspense series, it can be read as a standalone. But, I would recommend you read the first book, Heirs of Falcon Point, for the history of this story. Plus, it is an award-winning suspense that you don't want to miss either.

I received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed are my own.
