I got interested in the diamonds, as if I were the one who picked them. The story seems full of action since the owner of the diamond is a high-profile man. I am curious about Jack's fate when he had the diamond. Good to know that the book is in fast-paced mode with a lot of suspense.

The plot looks interesing. It is really funny how someone can just end up into something that doesn't concern them in any way. I feel so sad for Bev. They should have just gone to the police first.

Jack should have realized a box full of diamonds would not belong to just anybody, plus finding it seems suspicious. The crime boss is so ruthless as well, killing Bev was unnecessary as I thought she would live longer.

There a couple of twists in this story. Jimmy has stolen Benny's diamond. Now Jack and Nev are set up in the cross fire. I could see dangerous looming, given ruthless Benny, the crime boss, is. I might look up how things played out in this book. But then, the author needs to fix the vague dialogue this reviewer complained about.

A question to ask, how did the stones find their way under a train sit?. I hope Jack come on top pf the situation and let the devil rot in hell.

I'm not an avid lover of fictional books. Hence, I didn't fully resonate with this story. Nevertheless, the plot seems engaging. Thanks for sharing and congrats on BOTD.

I think it's fascinating to learn the reason why this novel is titled that way. Who is the devil referring to in the story, and what is this ice that's so important? At the same time, I also want to learn if Jack would end up alive even if Bev was killed because of their discovery.
Congratulations to the author for BOTD!

I find it interesting and exciting to read this book. I'm sure Jack will get more motivated to keep that diamond and get his revenge when Bev is killed. I will definitely download and read this complete book and recommend it to other friends

There are a couple of interesting points in this review that are food for thought. First, if you lose possession of your diamonds, is the person who finds them a thief? Second, Couldn’t short chapters be an effective device to maintain the fast pace of the story? I see also that real-life issues are woven in; all in all, an alluring book.
