episode 2: Sotheby's vs Christie's | The Point of No Return
It’s 1993 and Sotheby’s DeDe Brooks and Christie’s Christopher Davidge, at the behest of their bosses Alfred Taubman and Sir Anthony Tennant, begin meeting secretly to discuss fixing prices in a way that will benefit both auction houses.
But as the collusion plot starts to pay off and profits begin to rise, both their colleagues and the feds begin to sense something is amiss.
