A job gone wrong. A blackmailed friend. A city in turmoil. An obsession leading down a sinister path.NO ONE IS AS THEY SEEM ...The Queen of Diamonds brings you the second action-packed chapter of the Red Dog Conspiracy.All is not well in the city of Bridges. Tensions rise between the Families, who accuse each other of spying while Red Dog attacks escalate. Aristocratic jewel merchant Anastasia Dame Louis, styling herself 'The Queen of Diamonds,' hires private eye Jacqueline Spadros to collect from her debtors so she can leave the city.But Jacqui can’t leave David Bryce’s kidnapping and the murders of her teenage informants unpunished. Convinced the madman 'Black Jack' Diamond was behind the crimes, she pursues ways to prove it. The scoundrel and his crew, however, seem to be one step ahead: the terrifying man in white is seen lurking outside David’s home, forged letters appear across the city, and merchants in the Spadros quadrant report threats from a man who fits his description.When witnesses who can identify the kidnappers begin dying and evidence emerges that Jacqui’s mother is next on the list, Jacqui is forced to make a dreadful choice.Note: this is chapter 2 of a 13-part serial novel, the Red Dog Conspiracy. While it’s not mandatory to have read chapter 1 (The Jacq of Spades), it’s highly recommended that you do so before venturing forth.
