Description

There is something completely irresistible about a mystery that sparkles—especially when it carries secrets buried deep in history.

In this episode, host Terry Shepherd sits down with award-winning author and gemologist C.B. Wilson to dive into her glittering new release, Water Diamond, the thrilling second installment in her popular Gem Hunter series.

From the sun-drenched hills of a historic Phoenix mansion to the iconic, Art Deco-infused shores of Catalina Island, C.B. Wilson previews a high-stakes historic race to recover a hidden piece of jewelry with a dangerous past.

We talk about the inspiration behind the book, the real-world existence of "diamond dogs," and how a tiny, pink-outfit-wearing dachshund named Glimmer stole the show. Plus, C.B. shares her expert insights into the fascinating history of antique diamond cuts, the reality of manufactured gems, and how her own passion for gemology keeps her chasing down the ultimate puzzle.

Whether you love a sharp mystery, historic architecture, or just really beautiful jewelry, this conversation is pure heaven.
