In this "heady tale of romance, intrigue, and empowerment" (Pam
Jenoff, New York Times bestselling author) during the Gilded Age, a
determined and remarkable female journalist is determined to
uncover the truth of the legendary Hope Diamond--from the New York
Times bestselling author of Tiffany Blues. New York, 1910: A city
of extravagant balls in Fifth Avenue mansions and poor immigrants
crammed into crumbling Lower East Side tenements. A city where the
suffrage movement is growing stronger every day, but most women
reporters are still delegated to the fashion and lifestyle pages.
But Vera Garland is set on making her mark in a man's world of
serious journalism. Shortly after the world-famous Hope Diamond is
acquired for a record sum, Vera begins investigating rumors about
schemes by its new owner, jeweler Pierre Cartier, to manipulate its
value. Vera is determined to find the truth behind the notorious
diamond and its mysterious curses, especially when her reporting
puts her in the same orbit as a magazine publisher whose
blackmailing schemes led to the death of her beloved father.
Appealing to a young Russian jeweler for help, Vera is unprepared
when she begins falling in love with him...and even more unprepared
when she gets caught up in his deceptions and finds herself at risk
of losing all she has worked so hard to achieve. "Vivid...[and]
memorable" (Publishers Weekly), Cartier's Hope is "a twisting tale
of greed, revenge, and masked identities that put love and lives at
risk. A fast-paced historical novel that shines with as much
intrigue and mystery as the Hope Diamond itself" (Beatriz Williams,
New York Times bestselling author).
