あらすじ
同族企業である大手化学会社の三代目次期社長が誘拐された。犯人からのメッセージには身代金ではなく、「フローレンスの涙を渡せ」とだけ記されている。が、二代目の現社長の弟である牧羽剛こそ、誘拐の実行犯だった。
剛は異母弟であり、長く不遇の中で生きてきた。その中で、かつて創業者の愛人であって母親がこの「フローレンスの涙」のために命を落としたことを知り、復讐の機会を伺っていたのだ。
フローレンスの涙とは、ブルーダイヤが散りばめられた首飾り。アメリカのスミソニアン博物館に所蔵されている「ホープダイヤモンド」の片割れと噂され、70年前に行方不明となっていた。「ホープ」はルイ14世から続くダイヤであり、もし「フローレンス」があまたの伝説に彩られた「もう一つのホープ」であれば、その価値は数十億円をくだらない。
ところが、父親である現社長は交換を拒絶する。剛は自分の計算が狂ったことに動揺する。なぜ、彼ら全員は70年前に消えたダイヤを秘匿しつづけるのか。なぜ母親は自ら命をたたねばならなかったのか。次期社長であり、我が子の命を見捨ててまで、父親はなぜフローレンスをだそうとしないのか...。
謎を追う剛の前に、やがて意外な事実が明らかになっていく。そこには昭和史の暗部に隠された「秘密」、戦後日本人が背負ってきた「正義」、そして秘められた愛と死があった...。現代日本の企業内を舞台に、日本人の正義と誇り、そして愛の行方を問う本格サスペンス。
Synopsis

The third president-elect of a major chemical company, a family business, is kidnapped. The message from the kidnappers does not contain a ransom, but only a request to "hand over the Tears of Florence. However, the kidnapper is Goh Makiba, the younger brother of the current second-generation president.
Goh is the younger half-brother and has lived a long and unhappy life. He learned that his mother, the founder's mistress, lost her life because of the Tears of Florence, and he was looking for an opportunity to take revenge.
The Tears of Florence is a necklace studded with blue diamonds. It is rumored to be one half of the "Hope Diamond," which is housed in the Smithsonian Institution in the U.S. and went missing 70 years ago. The Hope has been in existence since Louis XIV, and if Florence is the other Hope, a diamond steeped in legend, it could be worth billions of yen.
However, his father, the current president, refuses to exchange it. Goh is upset that his calculations have gone awry. Why do they all continue to hide the diamond that disappeared 70 years ago? Why did the mother have to take her own life? Why does the father, who is the next president of the company, refuse to give up his own child's life in order to get rid of Florence?
As Goh pursues the mystery, unexpected facts begin to emerge. There are "secrets" hidden in the dark corners of Showa history, "justice" carried by the postwar Japanese, and hidden love and death... Set in the corporate world of modern Japan, this is an authentic suspense that questions the justice, pride, and love of the Japanese people.
