Despite rumors of its deadly curse and doubts of the stone's very existence, Andrew Weberley risks his life and all he holds dear to search the steamy jungles of Guatemala for the fabulous sapphire known as the Nourdon Blue.

After months without word from her father, Felicia Weberley hires Sid Langdon to find him. Sid attempts to track the stone, believing it will lead him to Weberley. He encounters the murky world of stolen artifacts when all leads converge on a pawn shop in Seattle's Chinatown, and a delusional pawnbroker who trades in antiquities while financing a search for the ultimate prize—the Nourdon Blue.

The Mystery of the Nourdon Blue is the story of a soul-searing and destructive obsession as it ripples through the lives of those it touches.
