History -- Blood From A Stone

In 1988, Yaron Svoray began covertly searching the forest hills outside an ancient walled village along the French-German border, hunting for a treasure in uncut diamonds buried in a foxhole by two American GIs in 1945--a treasure that carried a curse. During Yaron's 10-year hunt, he tracked the diamonds from South African mines to European diamond centers, from ghettos to death camps--and experienced something far greater and life altering than the riches that motivated his quest. Based on his book.
