After decades  in the spotlight as an Oscar-winning film star and famous beauty, Vivienne Winter is one of the most recognizable women on the planet. When
she decides  to auction her multimillion dollar jewellery collection for charity, there's no shortage of people  eager to buy  a piece of her incredible history.

Young, ambitious Christine Smith is a jewellery expert working for a centuries- old auction house. But in a world of aristocratic snobs, her working-class origins are holding her back. She's desperate to secure the sale of Vivienne Winter's gem  collection: it's set to be the biggest auction since  Elizabeth Taylor's. However, meeting the Hollywood star is just the first hurdle Christine has to jump.

Vivienne's handsome, spoilt and sexy  playboy grandson Angel  is the heir to her fortune. The anger and resentment he feels towards his grandmother for selling what he'd counted on as one day being  his inheritance sets in motion a series
of events with deadly consequences. Angel  is totally unscrupulous, and no one will  emerge from his plotting unscathed. For it seems  that family secrets cut sharper than diamonds.
