Award-winning author CB Wilson writes the Gem Hunters and the Barkview Mysteries—two series that blend intrigue, heart, and unforgettable animal companions. A GIA-trained gemologist, she brings authenticity and insider detail to her fast-paced stories of stolen jewels, hidden histories, and high-stakes recovery.
Her breakout novel, The Fire Diamond, has resonated strongly with readers, launching the Gem Hunters series with a compelling mix of adventure and intrigue. The story continues in The Water Diamond, following diamond recovery specialist Taylor “Hunter” and her diamond-sniffing dachshund, Glimmer, as they unravel a mystery that reaches back generations. The next installment, The Ice Diamond, is set for release later this year, taking readers into an icy world of secrets, danger, and international stakes.
CB’s Barkview Mysteries offer a lighter, Hallmark-style escape into the dog-friendliest town in America, where each story highlights the charm, quirks, and realities of life with beloved canine companions.
When she’s not writing, CB draws inspiration from horseback riding through the Arizona desert, playing pickleball, and her lifelong love of animals. Her stories reflect her passion for blending cozy mystery warmth with adventure-driven suspense—where every clue sparkles, and every diamond has a story.
