She soon discovers a web of deceit that has spanned the decades since,catching all kinds of people in its filaments.
Review
I enjoyed Natasha Cooper's book and was amazed how she managed to place her hero of the book and to research all the amazing facts that are featured in the book. I really did not expect to discover that there is so much that goes on behind the scenes in a reputable autioneers, including some who will willingly push the price of an item up just to gain a better price and will do anything just to satisfy their own needs and wants.
I just hope it is, that I never come across some dealer like that if I ever have to sell something.
A wonderful book and a real suspence thriller with murder and gang threats all thown in. Great read and it is good to see that all genres of books are now being printed - in large print for those with poor eyesight.
