About this title

Review

"The diamond detective is back! A sparkling, sexy tale of high society and high jewellery, as delightful and tempting as a glass of champagne in the Riviera sun!"

"Jemima Fox returns once more and this time the Fox is on the hunt for a Pink Panther. The diamond super sleuth, who feels like a best friend, takes us on a terrific crime caper, dashing in Gina heels from the glitz of London's Bond Street to the razzle-dazzle of Monaco where a spate of jewellery heists are all too reminiscent of the work of the 1950's Snow Leopard. The Monte Carlo Connection is film star glamour woven into the high-speed pursuit of scoundrels - Grace Kelly meets Penelope Pitstop - simply fabulous!"

"I feel really lucky to have read Josie Goodbody's third novel pre-publication, The Monte Carlo Connection could well be the novel of the summer and for once I'll be ahead of the game! I'll definitely be suggesting it for our summer book club read."

"Josie sure knows her jewellery and the jet-set lifestyle to go with it!"

"Beautiful descriptions of Monte Carlo and the French Riviera - definitely want to holiday there!"
