Fifteen-year-old Crystal O'Mally never thought her detective career would take off with a bang, literally. No sooner does she wish to solve a case NOT connected to diamonds, a local rancher approaches her with a baffling case. A saboteur has been stalking him for over five years, intent on blowing the family ranch to smithereens. Horses are stolen, cows stampeded, and workers injured. No matter where the rancher moves or what he does, the saboteur always manages to wreak havoc. Crystal's a little more cautious to take this case and for good reason.

Nothing exciting EVER happens in the tiny town of Alamo, Texas. But that doesn't stop feisty fifteen-year-old Crystal O'Mally from dreaming of becoming a top notch detective, just like her hero. She gets her chance when her dad, the local jeweler, is accused of stealing the town's treasure, a giant pink diamond. However, things quickly get out of control as clues don't add up, the suspect list grows rapidly, and a mysterious shadow always seems to be one step ahead of her.
