"Andrew Lownie's acclaimed biography - the first in over thirty years - reveals a character as complex and fascinating as any in his great quartet of thrillers starring master spy Richard Hannay. He succeeds in the daunting task of retelling Buchan's life in all its variety, breadth, and complexity. Based on exhaustive research and drawing on private papers previously unavailable to biographers, this is a compelling picture of Buchan's life, and a panoramic view of British political, social, and literary circles during the first half of the twentieth-century."--Jacket.

Practicing Buddhist and retired forensic pathologist Bodhi King seeks peace. But death keeps finding him. After solving a series of unexplained deaths and exposing a sordid political scandal, Bodhi retreated from the limelight. Permanently, he thought. But now he's called out of early retirement to help investigate a death cluster on a private island in the Florida Keys. Healthy residents of a ritzy assisted living facility are dying in the middle of the night ... their faces frozen in terror. Bodhi arrives on Golden Island to find a community gripped by fear. And beneath the surface, conflict simmers, threatening to boil over. The charismatic leader of the Golden Island Church, the dying Cuban-Americans, and the local Catholic priest all have secrets to protect. It’s up to Bodhi to bring the truth to light … before another resident dies.

A Path of Diamonds is a book of dreams, a book of secrets, and like all books, a book of love. The words flow within the square root of time. It is a book in death that is alive. Its a book of life in time. The devils book of life is a book of fear. And like all books, it is laced with the angels book of hope. It is a walk through the shadows within the spells of life, like two hands of flush in a game of poker, but who has the higher hearts?
