Aprašymas
"The Emerson Auctions Bid High, Bid Adieu" is the swiftly paced story of Roy Emerson, who owns Emerson Auctions, and his attempt to counterfeit one of the most famous - and valuable - baseball cards of all time: the Honus Wagner T206, worth millions of dollars. To accomplish this deed - and to make tens of millions of dollars with counterfeit cards - Roy uses arson, mob muscle, and deadly threats, many of them directed against Larry Dalton, a Philadelphia Fire Department investigator. Larry is the single father of eleven-year-old Miranda, who's dyslexic. The girl also becomes a target of Roy's violent tactics. Catherine Bertoni keeps a close eye on Roy, while reserving a romantic look for Steve Adelman, the auction house's Director of Acquisitions and Authentifications. Catherine is a smart, gorgeous red-haired young woman who recently started working for Roy. Steve has been with the company for years, long enough to have heard about the strange death - and botched murder investigation - of Roy's former business partner. There's murder, love, mystery, humor, and fascinating insights into the world of high-end collectables in "Bid High, Bid Adieu." (The business of collecting continues to grow, even in our sluggish economy, with millions of Americans now engaged in this growing pastime.)
