Plagued by a bitter divorce and an overbearing father, Lonny Cushman has fled his old life trading high-quality gems in New York City to scout the lawless sapphire fields of northern Madagascar. When he stumbles across the world's most precious sapphire, he gets a lot more than he bargained for. A fortune is his for the taking . . . if he can make it off the island alive.
