  Burma oozes greed, corruption, and hope. When an Air Force 
   X-37B mini-space shuttle mysteriously crash lands along the  
  China-Burma border, the Department of Homeland Security tags  
  contractor Gar Randolph to get it back. India and China deploy  
  special-forces to do the same. All will co-exist for the next several  
  weeks. 
  Gar assembles a most unusual team to find the wreckage and carry 
   its Top Secret components back to Siam. Included is the last  
  person on earth the US Government would want on the mission,  
  a drug lord named Ar Phat. On a converging vector is a missionary  
  nutritionist with six Rohingya orphans.  
  Seemingly unrelated initiatives coalesce during a complex scenario  
  that include deception, pursuit, and classic slight-of-hand  
  misdirection. Characters are colorful, impassioned, and bold. The  
  storyline moves quickly as tensions build. Adventure flares at every  
  turn of the page.

Living in Greenwich Village during the Great Depression of the 1930s, mired in a deteriorating marriage and caretaker of her handicapped daughter, the rosy promise of her early adulthood had fizzled. Reaching her nadir, she had an epiphany. She could and must change her life. 
  Discover how Miriam, with only a high-school diploma, but plenty of guts and perseverance, transformed herself. She resurrected her previous theater skills to refashion a world of adventure. She worked as a journalist investigator at Hallie Flanagan's innovative Federal Theatre Project, financed through FDR's New Deal, where she interviewed drought refugees in the growing fields of California. She galvanized the New York City Child Welfare Board, advocating for poor families. She muckraked for a newspaper, only to discover that the owner-publisher was unethical, according to her values. She won a seat in the New York State Assembly.

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
  Lesotho, 1962. In the stark beauty of the snow-bitten Maluti Mountains, a single lie sets two futures on a collision course. 
  After a forced plane landing throws Philippa Tremain back into the path of Stuart Price—the rugged charter pilot she’s never forgotten—a reckless impulse takes hold. To secure shelter, she tells their rescuers they are newlyweds. Stuart, horrified but protective, plays along. But their impulsive story, captured in a celebratory photograph, doesn't stay buried in the mountains. 
  Months later, Philippa is seemingly back on track, courted by a wealthy diamond heir in Cape Town. But the photograph resurfaces in the hands of a ruthless criminal entangled in a highland diamond syndicate. What began as a desperate lie becomes dangerous leverage, threatening Philippa’s glittering future and Stuart’s freedom. 
  As blackmail, illicit diamond deals, and political tensions swirl in the final years of colonial Basutoland, Philippa is caught between the secure life she’s been promised and the man her lie has endangered. Stuart, haunted by his own past, must decide how much he'll risk for a future that seems impossible. 
  Drawn from the author's lived history in colonial Lesotho and her father's real-life investigations into diamond smuggling and ritual murder, The Lesotho Diamond is a sweeping novel of love tested by secrets, loyalty challenged by ambition, and the courage it takes to choose your own path on a continent poised for change. 
  Perfect for readers of Wilbur Smith’s epic African adventures and Kate Quinn’s character-driven historical sagas.
