Expat Affair (Original)

Description: "An American expat's startling discovery plunges her into the deadly world of Amsterdam's diamond industry. Rayna Dumont came to Amsterdam for a fresh start.

Until the morning after, when Rayna finds him dead, millions of dollars' worth of diamonds missing from his safe. Willow Prins is captivated by the news. Her husband is Xander's former boss and heir to a diamond house, and the scandal strains their already-rocky marriage. As the house comes under scrutiny, Willow wonders how much of the blame she can place on Rayna. Soon, the two women are dragged into the dark underbelly of the diamond market, where they'll have to uncover the truth to survive. Who killed Xander? Where are the missing diamonds? And who can you trust in a city thousands of miles from home?"--

Review Quotes: "Writing with authenticity and grace, Kimberly Belle provides a deliciously chilling look at the lives of two women - an expat in Amsterdam, and the woman who seems determined to ruin her. Twisty, glitzy and oh so fun!"
- Sarah Pekkanen, #1 New York Times bestselling author

"Like the rare diamonds at the heart of this book, The Expat Affair begins with gritty raw material--two American women in Amsterdam, expats and strangers caught up in violent forces--and applies unthinkable pressure--murders, stalking, the demands of a famous family dynasty on its last leg--to test whether its heroines will crack or be forged into something greater. The result is a marvel: a glamorous, smart, and propulsive thriller that is as much about women finding their agency as it is a high-stakes international game of cat and mouse. Belle is the queen of crafting badass yet vulnerable women you want to see rule the world. What a knockout."
- Ashley Winstead, bestselling author of Midnight is the Darkest Hour
