- ~2 min read
Join investigator Louma Shapiro as she digs into the underbelly of Antwerp's glittering gemstone industry in the captivating crime thriller, "Blood Trail Antwerp." Despite being an exceptional cop, Louma (portrayed by Marie-Lou Sellem) is denied a promotion due to office politics. But she's quickly immersed in a grisly murder case - that of male model Jean-Baptiste Kalemba, found dead at the city's bustling port.
Blood, Diamonds, and Deception in Antwerp
Suspecting a case of mistaken identity, Shapiro follows the bloody trail to Kalemba's half-sister Kisha, who's been targeted due to her revelations about blood diamonds in her native Congo. Kisha has ventured from the Congo to Antwerp to expose the illicit practices that threaten countless lives. As threats swirl around her, Shapiro and her team are left to navigate a dangerous game of cat and mouse.
One man at the center of the firestorm is Belgian diamond dealer Abel Hoffmann, who peddles blood-soaked gems under the guise of ethical trade. Not everyone in Antwerp trusts the glitzy veneer Hoffmann presents, and it seems that shadows lurk beneath the glittering facade of the city's diamond trade.

Marie-Lou Sellem, the main actress, shares that Antwerp's complicated past and diverse culture create a fascinating backdrop for the story, illuminating the city's darker corners while offering a glimpse into its rich history and vibrant community.
