Vincent Lash began his career in the jewelry trade in 1980, receiving the Graduate Gemologist designation from the Gemological Institute of America in 1982.

In addition to appraising throughout the mid-Atlantic region, he writes articles and gives lectures about the jewelry trade. . Insurable Interest is the story of a jewelry appraiser and artisan-with a passion for sailing the Chesapeake Bay--who becomes entangled with an underground investment syndicate, whose profits hinge on murder. This is a fictional thriller that reveals the secrets of the jewelry trade. This is the first in the Crook Book series by this author.

Rare first format--this was later released in a Kindle version under the title of Jewelers Mark.
