Desperately bored by dull heiresses and tedious soirees, he seeks new excitement—with a dangerous scheme to steal the world’s most legendary gemstone from its owner, Thomas Hope.

So when his prized jewel disappears from around her neck, she has no choice but to track down the villain responsible for the theft.

Book Synopsis The King of Diamonds by : Rena Pederson
Download or read book The King of Diamonds written by Rena Pederson and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2024-04-02 with total page 479 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The thrilling story of a brazen, uncatchable jewel thief who roamed the homes of Dallas high society—and a window into the dark secrets lurking beneath the surface of the Swinging Sixties. As a string of high profile jewel thefts went unsolved, "the King of Diamonds," as he was dubbed by the press, eluded police and the FBI for more than a decade and took advantage of the parties and devil-may-care attitude of the Swinging Sixties. Like Cary Grant in "To Catch a Thief," the King was so bold that he tip-toed into the homes of millionaires while they were watching television, or hosting parties. He hid in their closets. And dared to smoke a cigarette while they were sleeping not far away. Rena Pederson, then a young cub reporter at the Dallas Morning News, heard the police reports trickle in while she managed the night desk. With gymnastic skill, this thief climbed trees or crawled across rooftops to get into these sprawling mansions. He took jewels from heiresses, oil kings, corporate CEOs. These were not just some of the richest people in Texas; they were some of the richest people of their time. Scotland Yard and Interpol were on the look-out. But the thief was never caught and the jewels never recovered. To follow the tracks of the thief, Rena has interviewed more than two hundred people, from veteran cops to strippers. She went to pawn shops, Las Vegas casinos, and a Mafia hangout—and discovered that beneath the glittering façade of Dallas debutantes and raucaous parties was a world of sex trafficking, illegal gambling, and political graft. When one of the leading suspects was found dead in highly unusual circumstances, the story darkened. What seemed to be taken from the pages of an Edna Ferber story now crashed head-first into Mickey Spillane. Like the stories of Fantomas or Raffles, the odd psychological aspects of the The King of Diamonds give us different kind of crime story. Detectives were stumped: Why did the thief break into houses when his targets were inside, increasing the risk of being captured? Why did he hide in their closets? Many times, he was so close he could hear their breathing as they slept. As one socialite put it, “It was a very peculiar business.”
Book Synopsis Confessions of a Master Jewel Thief by : Bill Mason
Download or read book Confessions of a Master Jewel Thief written by Bill Mason and published by Villard. This book was released on 2005-04-12 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The extraordinarily captivating memoir of the remarkable jewel thief who robbed the rich and the famous while maintaining an outwardly conventional life—an astonishing and completely true story, the like of which has never before been told . . . or lived. Bill Mason is arguably the greatest jewel thief who ever lived. During a thirty-year career he charmed his way into the inner circles of high society and stole more than $35 million worth of fabulous jewels from such celebrities as Robert Goulet, Armand Hammer, Phyllis Diller, Bob Hope, Truman Capote, Margaux Hemingway and Johnny Weissmuller—he even hit the Mafia. Along the way he seduced a high-profile Midwest socialite into leaving her prominent industrialist husband, nearly died after being shot during a robbery, tricked both Christie’s and Sotheby’s into fencing stolen goods for him and was a fugitive for five years and the object of a nationwide manhunt. Yet despite the best efforts of law enforcement authorities from several states as well as the federal government, he spent less than three years total in prison. Shadowy, elusive and intensely private, Mason has been the subject of many magazine and newspaper features, but no journalist has ever come close to knowing the facts. Now, in his own words and with no holds barred, he reveals everything, and the real story is far more incredible than any of the reporters, detectives or FBI agents who pursued Mason ever imagined. Confessions of a Master Jewel Thief, expertly co-written by bestselling author Lee Gruenfeld, is a unique true-crime confessional.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The True Story of George Feder: "The Houdini of Jewel Thieves" -- Trained by his Mafia mentor to be a fearless high-rise Superthief, Feder went on to steal a King's Ransom worth of diamonds, rare gemstones, and precious custom-made jewelry from luxury condos and penthouses in New York, Miami, San Francisco, Chicago, and dozens of other US cities during his incredibly prolific 15-year career. Wanted by the FBI, Interpol, and numerous law enforcement agencies throughout the United States, Feder earned a reputation as "The Houdini of Jewel Thieves", a phrase coined by James Patterson, former Special Agent with the US Justice Department, undercover agent with Detroit's Organized Crime Bureau and member of Homeland Security. "Feder loved his profession; in fact he was addicted to it," said former Miami Dade detective Tom "Bulldog" Blake, who relentlessly pursued Feder for ten years. "Feder's closets could be stuffed full of cash and jewelry, yet he would continue to steal. No one knows the dollar amount Feder netted from his burglaries; only George knows that for sure."
