The diamond secret [large print] / Lenora Worth /

Worth, Lenora. (Author).

Summary:

Upon her father's death, Esther Carlisle inherited his antique shop. Just as she's about to close one night, a man walks in claiming to have known her father. He also hands her a stack of letters her father had presumably written to him, and informs her that her wild-dreaming daddy discovered the location of the legendary chocolate diamond. Just as Cullen Murphy is about to leave, he sees two men--up to no good--heading for the shop. As shots are fired, he pushes Esther back and diverts attention from her so that she can get away. As Esther reads her father's letters, she begins to realize that the childhood adventure stories he told her had more truth than fantasy to them. Did her father really uncover the mysteries of the most sought-after diamond in the world? And if he did, could he have been murdered? Will she and Cullen be next? Esther may not trust Cullen, but staying at his side is the only way for her to find the diamond--and stay alive.
