Cartwright's case starts off simply enough. Miss Stonewall from the Mutual Trust Insurance Company wants him to track down a missing orangutan. The thing is, as Cartwright explains to her, he doesn't do orangutans. But when Miss Stonewall offers him a large wad of cash for the job, his suspicions are piqued. While checking out the orangutan's cell, Cartwright stumbles across a rare green diamond setting off a chain of events, and lands Cartwright in the middle of a tangled web of conspiracies. From the Argentine Dirty Wars and Death Squads of the 1970s to an elderly gentleman who masterminds one of the largest diamond heists of the century, to a cold-blooded assassin determined to fulfil his destiny, Cartwright's confronted at every turn, in his efforts to solve one of the most tangled and diabolical mysteries of his career.
