Reviews
"A rare gem, punning aside. The Russian Pink will enthrall fans for Jack Reacher and Jason Bourne, and leave them hoping for more Alex Turner."-- "Booklist, STARRED REVIEW"
"A diamond is no one's best friend in this fast-paced debut novel filled with greed, violence, and politics. Hart writes with skill, wit, and evident knowledge about the diamond industry--who knew there were such things as diamond pipes? The Russian Pink is top-quality storytelling."-- "Kirkus Review, STARRED REVIEW"
"The Russian Pink is a deft, fast-paced thriller that shines its light on a fascinating and dangerous world few of us know about: diamonds and how they get from dinosaur days to glistening around beautiful necks and promised fingers. MatthewHart creates a saga that hurtles through mind-snapping twists at breakneck speed, with killers, con men, cops, and billionaires, all seeking to control a giant, ultra-rare pink diamond. If you want to know the real story that such treasures tell, this is the novel for you."

--James Grady, New York Times bestselling author of Six Days of the Condor
"Intriguing, with an original premise and assured prose." -- "Publishers Weekly"
"Already an authority on the ways blood diamonds are formed, bought, and sold, Matthew Hart's expertise shines in his first thriller, featuring a rose-colored heavyweight that lies around the neck of the presumptive First Lady. An exhilarating read, The Russian Pink has more facets than even the world's biggest diamond."----Mitch Silver, author of the recent thriller, The Apollo Deception and The Bookworm
"Hart writes passionately about diamonds and the people who chase them, but he also has a strong handle on the personal dynamics and obsessions that drive this mysterious world." --Dwyer Murphy "CrimeReads"
