Hot Rocks — Glen Chase

Diamonds are not necessarily a girl's best friend, not when she has to compete with the Mafia to get them. This super-thriller opens with a bang, with our deadly but delicious heroine flying over the vast Kalahari Desert on the first leg on a long planned African vacation. But down there among the sun-blasted rocks three Mafia killers are stalking a geologist with a pocketful of gems and a map to the biggest diamond field on earth. Cherry blitzes the killers -- and there goes her vacation! Her new assignment is to stop the Mob from getting a stranglehold on the billion dollar international diamond trade. The action speeds from Capetown to Marakesh to Amsterdam, as N.Y.M.P.H.O.'s sexiest agent uses beds and bullets to lay the Mafia low.
