The Africa Story

A marvelously fast paced and action packed account delivered first hand by the professional musician and smuggler who braved the jungles of Africa for precious stones and out smarted governments, criminal syndicates, and the diamond districts in the cat and mouse world of illicit diamond smuggling. A first hand look at the real world of blood diamonds, journey from the sun soaked streets of Miami into the thickly canopied jungles of Sierra Leone. Learn the perils of establishing alliances with tribal princes, high stakes deals with diamond cartels, an episode of forbidden love, and the intricacies of how one might smuggle large sums of cash across borders and live to tell the tale. You'll find no disclaimer of protected persons, changed identities, or muddied series of events to protect the innocent -everyone here is guilty, and its all true.
