  💎 When jewelry historian Gemma Sterling inherits her grandmother's antique jewelry box, she discovers it comes with a dark legend: every owner for the past century has met with a mysterious end. Gemma dismisses the superstition as folklore—until a rival appraiser is found dead with one of the box's missing pieces clutched in her hand. Suddenly, Gemma finds herself at the center of a deadly treasure hunt involving cursed diamonds, stolen heirlooms, and a secret society of collectors who will stop at nothing to possess the complete set. With the help of a skeptical museum curator and her knowledge of gemology, Gemma must decode clues hidden in the jewelry's craftsmanship before the curse claims its next victim. But as she uncovers each piece's bloody history, she realizes some family secrets are better left buried in velvet.

  As the painting of The Temptation of Christ hangs ominously on the wall, young Samuel Morgan is plagued by its haunting presence. But it's not just the painting that's causing him anguish. Samuel's involvement in the occult with an insane witchcraft scientist, Alan Wilson, has set free a terrifying demon—Beelphegor—with devastating effect. 
  Desperate for a solution, Samuel's mother, Marilyn Morgan, seeks help from doctors and psychiatrists. But their support is ineffective in the face of such malevolent forces. In a last-ditch effort, Marilyn turns to Reverend Stephen Mason, a priest-counsellor known for his expertise in exorcisms. But before he can begin the daunting task of driving out the demon that possesses Samuel, Reverend Mason must first overcome his own faltering faith and uncertainties about God. 
  As the battle between good and evil rages on, the stage is set for a final showdown between the reverend and the demonic Beelphegor on holy ground—where the fate of Samuel's soul hangs in the balance.
