Sophie asked Reece, and he let out a chuckle, saying, "You won't believe it, but after work, I found this right on my doorstep."
"What?" Sophie blinked, thinking she must have misheard.
Reece continued, "Ever since you told me to keep an eye out, I reached out to some international contacts. They all came up empty. But the day after I asked around, this showed up at my door."
Sophie got what Reece was implying.
"So, you think someone found out you were digging and handed you a straight path to The Silent Shadows?" Sophie mused.
"If that's true, this group's reach must be massive, and they could be using the entertainment industry to spread their influence."
As Reece spoke, a light bulb went off in Sophie's head. The lavish parties the Mintons hosted, packed with entertainment stars—whether they were has-beens or current sensations—were all part of the trap for wealthy businessmen. But if The Silent Shadows used the entertainment industry to spread their message, it wasn’t the stars luring the businessmen; it was the businessmen being ensnared by the stars linked to The Silent Shadows.
Sophie didn't want to dwell on it further. Following this train of thought led to a chilling possibility.
The Silent Shadows' power was global. The influence of stars could spread endlessly—one becomes ten, ten become a hundred, a hundred become a thousand...
She recalled Joseph's obsession and his mysterious twenty-year disappearance. Joseph had left without a penny from the Burke family. How did he rise again? He had to have had someone backing him.
It had to be The Silent Shadows.
Just like Vanessa, who sacrificed everything for revenge. And Joseph, did he also give everything just to get his hands on the gemstones and rebuild his dreams?
"Colby," Sophie's voice trembled a bit as she said, "The Silent Shadows are after those four gemstones."
It had to be those gemstones! When she woke up, Kiran and the gemstones were gone.

Enjoying the story, to much victimising Sophie, they could at least try to target others. Hope at some point Sophie comes clean and forgives James and explain her view of loving the boy James was. Just so they both learn and move on. Really needs to be some consequences for the instigators instead of being let go. Sandy needs to see Vanessa is using her as a cover, and Sandy needs to wake up to herself, or be held responsible by her father for alienating the people she was supposed to make contact with. Hope the reporter brother is keeping an eye on what Vanessa and Odie are up to, and that he has he’s own justice in store. Hope he becomes like Reese a good partner. Hope James lives and finds he’s HEA. Need to put Nicole in prison , no release and several lifetimes , with all the evidence on the crimes she’s committed just to get her out of the way guilt free. More about what’s up with Gordon....
Excellent novel!...
