Dazzling and celebrity-filled, this anecdote-packed account of Raymond C. Yard and his remarkable jewelry is a classic rags-to-riches tale. In 1898, Raymond C. Yard began his career in the jewelry business as a door boy at Marcus & Co.

It seems that somebody knows how these events are connected, and whoever it is seems intent on blackmail.
