For today's post, I'm giving you a little bit of crime news that caught my attention: contraband luxury goods that were taken by French customs were auctioned off recently. Among them, of course, were diamonds. The uncut diamonds were estimated at around €30,000 to €40,000. Not exactly the biggest loot, but not cheap either. I sometimes check if diamonds are on the news, because I consider them a great MacGuffin, asI mentioned before. They were cliché back in the days, but they are seldom used today, at least from what I can tell as an avid reader of crime fiction. So I'd love to bring them back again. Every time I see something like this on the news, I think there must be a way to make a story about it.
