Yet instead of glittering treasure Trenchard find cargoes of contraband. Drawn into the dangerous, secretive world of smugglers it is not long before he is forced to flee the country. For John it seems as if the curse of the diamond is always with him and it is to be many years before he returns to Moonfleet although fate has a final hand to play...
