"Josiah Reynolds can hardly believe she hears someone call out her name as she strolls down 75th Street in New York City. With the promise of a free drink, Bunny Witt steers Josiah into nearby Bemelmans Bar where she proceeds to unfold a tale about being stalked by a mysterious stranger. It seems that Bunny's apartments in London and New York have been broken into and searched, yet nothing was taken. She is desperate for someone to find out who is tormenting her and why. She has decided that someone shoud be our Josiah! This chance encounter in the Big Apple lead Josiah into the world of haute couture, mysterious princes from India, precious gems, and murder in a town that keeps its secrets well!" -- page 4 of cover.

I did enjoy it, but...
Over the past few books, the characters have become less complex, as have the plots.It's also heading into "cozy" territory, from its origins in noir- and it's an awkward transition.
Josiah is becoming a lot crankier and more bitter, which makes sense but does not make the series more enjoyable.
This book dealt with international jewel thieves, which is fun and something I have not encountered recently.
I do wish that Josiah would achieve some kind of resolution to her ex-husband, now dead- but only after he stole all their assets and gave them to his mistress. And i really wonder why Asa- their daughter, who is scary- has not dug into that situation and rectified it. (
