“If his subsequent novels are researched to the same degree, he could claim a legitimate position among the notables of this genre.”

–Library Journal

Here’s the set-up from reviewer Aerin Rose:

When a very old body and an even older gem surface in a bog in northern Germany, persons worldwide realize they’re the missing clues to the Tavernier stones, a lost cache of legendary jewels. Amish-born cartographer John Graf throws in his lot with scholar-turned-thief David Freeman in this modern-day treasure hunt. Together with David’s gorgeous partner-in-crime Sarah, they race around the world. They don’t know it, but they’re up against a German Kommissar, a rival crook, and a penurious gentlewoman who bears a striking resemblance to the Wicked Witch of the West.

One Reviewer Notes:

“Parrish incorporates an impressive depth of knowledge about cartography, cryptology, gemstones, and history, and his technical command of these details lends a precious believability to the hunt that is foundational to the book’s success. While tension-filled and plenty thrilling, the action never veers off into the realm of the cartoonish, as Parrish grounds us so believably in his world of maps, codes, Amish culture, German lore, and, of course, precious jewels. I love a book where I learn as much as I’m entertained. Especially when the subject matter is as rich as this. “

–Sarah Hina
