As I reach out, my hands meet cold hard stone, and I realise in one single terrifying moment that I'm back where it all started - trapped at the bottom of the well where my best friend Amy's body was found fifteen years ago.   My husband Martin warned me not to come back here. Westhaven turned its back on me a long time ago, after my hit true crime documentary freed Amy's murderer and made our small town infamous. But when another teenager turned up dead, I knew I couldn't stay away...     Did I get too close to the truth? Is that why my captor put me down here? But the way they're taunting me from the top of the well feels too personal. They say if I want to live, I have to tell the truth.If I want to hold my little girl again, I have to figure out who put me down here and what secret they claim I'm keeping. But how long until I have only one last breath?

  In this expertly crafted follow-up to his acclaimed novel The Inheritance, Simon Tolkien has once again written a gripping and nuanced thriller laced with historical detail, treachery, and his signature writing style—a uniquely suspenseful blend that the Los Angeles Times called "half Christie and half Grisham."It's 1960, and David Swain is two years into his life sentence for murdering the lover of his ex-girlfriend, Katya Osman. In the dead of night, David escapes from prison, and that same night Katya is found murdered in her uncle's home, Blackwater Hall.Inspector Trave of the Oxford Police, last seen in The Inheritance, heads the manhunt for David, whom he first brought to justice two years earlier. But Trave's suspicions lead him to Katya's uncle Titus Osman, a rich diamond dealer, and his sinister brother-in-law, Franz Claes, who has gone to great lengths to hide his former ties with the Nazis. However, Trave's motives are suspect - Osman is having an affair with Trave's estranged wife, Vanessa, and a newcomer to the Oxford Police, Inspector Macrae, is eager to exploit Trave's weaknesses to further his own ambition. Caught up in his superiors' rivalry, Trave's young assistant, Adam Clayton, finds himself uncertain who is right and which side to choose. Once David is captured and put on trial for his life, Trave is willing to risk everything that is dear to him—professionally and personally—to pursue his obsessive belief in Osman's guilt.The King of Diamonds is a Kirkus Reviews Best of 2011 Mysteries title.
