Bidding for revenge

"Stolen antiques. An unexplained death. Can an amateur sleuth tell a fake from the real deal and solve a curio of a murder? Trainee antiques expert, Dotty Sayers, is nervous but excited about buying period furniture for a local celebrity.

During the quiet summer months, she's persuaded to join her company's triathlon team for a charity competition in Britain's picturesque Cotswolds. But she realises all that glitters is not gold when a fellow competitor collapses and dies. With only a young sergeant concerned about the athletic woman's death, Dotty focuses on the sale of counterfeit furniture.

She informs the police about a suspicious phone call but is horrified when her information puts an innocent life at risk. Can Dotty see through the sham and acquire the clues to ensure justice is served?" -- Cover, p. [4].
