Dying to Deceive - Couverture souple

Sophie Rivers can't wait to settle into married life with cricketer Mike Lowden, and when she's offered a temporary job at his home ground, archiving a collection of memorabilia, she jumps at the chance. But once news gets out that the bequest contains some priceless objects, Sophie and her colleagues become the victims of a terrifying campaign of intimidation and violence, and when some of the most valuable items go missing, along with the museum's curator, things start to look very sinister indeed.

Like Sophie Rivers, Judith Cutler was born and bred in the Black Country and taught for many years in a Birmingham further education college. When not writing novels she returns to her first love, short stories, many of which have won prizes or been broadcast.
