"In Hart’s exhilarating third adventure for U.S. Treasury agent Alex Turner, the former jewel thief goes on a globe-trotting quest to keep a powerful counterfeiting technology out of foreign hands. Hart puts the pedal to the metal and doesn’t let up. This is perfect poolside reading."

– Publishers Weekly

“The story is exciting and suspenseful, and Hart knows his stuff, having spent years writing about the diamond trade. This tale has a ring of truth about it that you just can’t fake. Recommend it to everyone who enjoys a good, fast-paced thriller and, especially, to readers who admire gem-based thrillers.”

– Booklist

Praise for the novels of Matthew Hart

“A witty, high-octane international thriller with a plot as multifaceted as a Rubik’s cube."

– The Star Tribune

"A crackerjack, gem of a thriller. A shot of adrenaline. Fast-paced, expertly-written with an insider's knowledge—not just of diamonds, but much, much more—that elevates the book to another level. Honestly, this one is hard to put down. Damn near flawless."

– Christopher Reich, New York Times bestselling author

"Hart writes passionately about diamonds and the people who chase them, but he also has a strong handle on the personal dynamics and obsessions that drive this mysterious world."

– Dwyer Murphy, CrimeReads

“Already an authority on the ways blood diamonds are formed, bought, and sold, Matthew Hart’s expertise shines in this thriller. An exhilarating read, The Russian Pink has more facets than even the world’s biggest diamond.”

– Mitch Silver, author of The Apollo Deception and The Bookworm

"A deft, fast-paced thriller that shines its light on a fascinating and dangerous world few of us know about: diamonds and how they get from dinosaur days to glistening around beautiful necks and promised fingers. Matthew Hart creates a saga that hurtles through mind-snapping twists at breakneck speed, with killers, con men, cops, and billionaires, all seeking to control a giant, ultra-rare pink diamond. If you want to know the real story that such treasures tell, this is the novel for you."

– James Grady, New York Times bestselling author of Six Days of the Condor

“A diamond is no one’s best friend in this fast-paced novel filled with greed, violence, and politics. Hart writes with skill, wit, and evident knowledge about the diamond industry. Top-quality storytelling.”

– Kirkus Review, starred review

“A rare gem, punning aside, this will enthrall fans for Jack Reacher and Jason Bourne, and leave them hoping for more Alex Turner."
