Award-winning mystery author CB Wilson is excited to announce the release of The Water Diamond, the second book in her popular Gem Hunters Mystery series.
When a legendary Art Deco bracelet vanishes during a gala at Phoenix’s historic Wrigley Mansion, diamond recovery specialist Taylor “Hunter” Hunter is called in to investigate. Her search leads to Catalina Island, where a century-old mystery, hidden clues, and a trail of secrets point to a treasure someone is willing to kill to protect.
Joining Hunter is fan-favorite Glimmer the Diamond Dog, a long-haired dachshund with an extraordinary talent for finding lost diamonds. Together, they follow clues through Avalon, the iconic Catalina Casino, and some of the island’s most beloved landmarks.
Described as “National Treasure meets Stephanie Plum on Catalina Island,” The Water Diamond combines treasure hunting, mystery, adventure, and a touch of humor in a fast-paced clean mystery.
Wilson, a GIA-trained gemologist and winner of the 2025 CIBA First Place Mystery & Mayhem Award for Puppied to Death, brings her expertise in gemstones and storytelling to every page.
To celebrate the release, Wilson has partnered with the Catalina Island Humane Society, donating a portion of book sales to support animal welfare efforts on the island.
