A Palm Beach Con: Greed Runs Deep. Trust Runs Out. (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798298411936)

When the girl Pace is seeing off and on stands him up at the bar, he bumps into James Adler, a guy with more lines than a telephone directory. After Adler walks into Pace's pawn shop the next day, selling a diamond deal too good to be true, a down-on-his-luck Pace decides it's time to change his life for the better.

Cue a string of stones-for-loans deals that bring in the kind of wealth Pace could only dream of and the types of friends with the power and influence to help further his ambitions. But it isn't enough. Adler wants more, and he draws Pace into his web of intrigue, culminating in a trip to the diamond mines of Sierra Leone and a meeting with an African princess and her enigmatic father.

Can Pace negotiate a deal that could turn his fortunes around?

Is his charismatic business partner, James Adler, everything he seems?

And can he make it out of Sierra Leone without running into the Sia and her armed militia?

A Palm Beach Con is a high-stakes thriller packed with lies, lust, and lethal consequences.

And yes-it's based on a true story.
