A quick note…

While doing research for book 8, Thicker Than Thieves, I came across some interesting information about the retail, cash converter, and stolen value of diamonds.

So if you’ve got some stolen diamonds to sell (just kidding), here’s what you might expect. It’s kind of surprising just how fast the price drops.

Another article that might catch your interest is called These Police Drones are Watching You, which discusses the pervasiveness of police drone use in the US. No matter where you are on the politics of public aerial surveillance (Should you have a right to privacy in your backyard, for example?), there’s some interesting info here.

And if you want to buy one, you’ll find out what the good ones cost.

That’s all for now. Happy reading!
