Product Information
The Diamond of Jeru is an adventure story set in 1950's Sarawak, a British Colony on the north coast of Borneo. Mike Kardec, an expatriate American is hired by the local officials to guide John and Helen Lacklan, a visiting scientist and his wife on a expedition to find the stone that will fill her still empty engagement ring. When John fears his wife is attracted to their guide he fires Kardec and proceeds up river with a poorly chosen native who has shown him a sample of the huge stones he has found. Fearing the worst, Kardec pursues them in the company of Raj and Inghai, two Kelabit tribesmen who have befriended him. The journey leads all of them far into the jungles and rugged mountains of the interior. Even as John and Helen's marriage is stressed beyond redemption, Kardec and his companions discover the mystery that lies behind a deadly Dyak warlord who has become the last of the Borneo headhunters. It is a mystery that will test each of them personally in a final conflagration of magic and fire and blood.Product Identifiers
