About the Book

A Modern Day Siege Warfare Thriller An ancient curse collides with modern greed when heavily armed mercenaries lay siege to the Tower of London. Ashley Bellamy, a diamond enthusiast, visits her estranged father Clive-the Tower's Chief Yeoman Warder-and becomes trapped when ex-bomb disposal expert Richard Bindar leads a brutal heist disguised as an act of terrorism. Their target: the cursed Kohinoor diamond, said to doom any man who possesses it. With police forces deliberately misdirected and innocent lives at stake, Ashley and Clive must use their intimate knowledge of the fortress's secret passages and medieval defenses to fight back. Armed with ancient longbows against modern weapons, they turn murder holes and centuries-old tactics against their ruthless enemies. As the Tower faces its most devastating siege in history, this fractured father-daughter duo must reconcile their past and uncover Bindar's true motives before the diamond's curse claims new victims-and London's greatest fortress falls.

Review :
"If you enjoy thrillers with a touch of history, this is one to pick up..." - LibraryThing "This book is fast-paced and it's a thriller set in the Tower of London. It's about a group of armed men who comes after a famous diamond and what follows is an intense siege mixing modern weapons with the Tower's old defenses. What I liked most was the setting. The Tower of London feels alive and adds so much atmosphere. The story also has a strong emotional side with the complicated relationship between a father and daughter, which gave the action more depth. The writing definitely felt cinematic in a way, I guess it was almost like watching a movie and it kept me hooked." LibraryThing "In an extraordinarily researched book, we learn more about the Tower of London than any human should. Herman the Raven was a favorite character who followed the Yeoman's daughter everywhere she went. But I get ahead of myself. The tale begins in 1087s with the construction of the White Tower. The Crown Jewels were added through the years but none grander than the Koh-in-Noor, one of the world's largest diamonds. This is the gem that thieves want and their plans are well thought out. In trying to steal the Crown Jewels they take on Clive Bellamy. Chief Yeoman Warder and retired military. Clive rallies his fellow Yeomen and proceeds to attempt to take the Tower back. Being very familiar with all non modern weaponry this becomes very interesting! A good story of an estranged father-daughter combo, great bad guys and an institution which is the symbol of Great Britain." LibraryThing "I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It was a fast paced and exciting read. The characters were well written and of course who wouldn't love Herman the raven. The relationship between Clive and his daughter Ashley is awkward and uncomfortable at first and she does do a lot of whining for my taste but it doesn't take anything away from the story. The ending is perfect and satisfying." LibraryThing "Usually it is sort of an insult to say that a book would make a good movie, but I would really like to see this movie if it's ever made. The story follows the Chief Warder of the Tower of London who's daughter from the US is staying with him. While they try to mend their relationship, an apparent terrorist attack locks down the Tower, with only the Tower guards and medieval weaponry and their historical knowledge to defend the most important site in London."
