"An utterly gripping and propulsive read, as one would expect from one of Ireland's finest thriller writers."
The journey north soon turns violent as tensions erupt between other hopeful diggers and a gang of Boer men. Everyone has their eye on the same elusive prize - and some will stop at nothing to get it.
For Jack and Anna, unearthing a diamond is only half the battle. Getting out of the mines alive will prove far more difficult - and dangerous. And when the worst happens, Jack finds himself tested as no enemy, no man and no war has ever before.

Craven, who saw the third in Washington Poe series, The Curator, awarded five stars in the VN (Vrij Nederland) Detective and Thriller guide - thus shortlisting the book for Thriller of the Year!
