Storyline

A checkered past full of deception and anger threatens to bring both a family and a diamond empire crashing to the ground in this absorbing mini-series starring Roy Scheider, Alyssa Milano, and Sean Patrick Flanery. Abandoned by his powerful father Jacob (Scheider) nearly twenty years ago, diamond hunter Johnny Lance (Flanery) returns to South Africa's Emerald Coast to confront a past that continues to haunt him. As simmering tensions quickly swell to a furious boil, Johnny must struggle not only to regain the empire he risked losing two decades ago, but to escape with his own life in a desperate attempt to impress Jacob and elude the vengeful wrath of his half-brother Benedict (Michael Easton).
