Publisher Description
As an undercover investigator for a giant insurance corporation, Diana de Revillon is assigned to recover nine priceless stolen paintings. A professional with a 100% success record, the golden girl's quest brings her into both the glittering world of mysterious and handsome billionaire David Mendel, who appears to fall for her socialite/party-girl cover, and the underworld of tough narc, Tom Estevez, who is wise to her. Across the face of Europe's dazzling cities to the showdown on David Mendel's sumptuous yacht, both she and Tom pursue what they suspect the mastermind David has – the nine famous paintings to be exchanged for 'snow and ice', cocaine and diamonds. But in the diamond-studded glamour of Mendel's world, the seducer has become the seduced. Diana has come under David's fascinatingly masterful spell – and is brought to the brink of a damnable choice: expose him or trust him
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Security International agent Diana de Revillon is no ordinary detective. Blonde, lissome and a member of Europe's jet set, she finds her undercover work a meaningful alternative to life in the platinum playpen. Her latest assignment, however, may prove her undoing. All the tracks of a too-coincidental art heist and an enormous cocaine deal lead to David Mendel, an attractive and mysterious billionaire. Even while Diana flirts with David on the slopes of St. Moritz and the racetrack at Deauville, both realize that something more profound than a superficial society seduction is occurring. When David invites Diana to join him on a cruise on his yacht, is it for love or for death? Like a good travel agent, Bonds knows where to send her readers and which details of life among the idle rich to point out. If the itinerary seems too predictable and the characters too obvious at times, it's still a fun trip.
