It’s been several weeks since Whitney Dagner had to save her brother from being framed for murder. Things on Catalina Island are starting to return to normal. Her souvenir shop, The Dame of the Sea, is keeping her busy, but not raking in the profits like she hoped. Tomorrow, Goldy (do not call her grandma) has a surprise delivery to the shop and this evening she is delivering another treasure map for Pops. Things are bound to turn around for the better, right?
As Whitney motors up to the golf course to bury her treasure, she finds a scene a little too familiar. Right where X marks the spot is the body of a young local man by the name of Leo Franklin. Conveniently pinned to his shirt is a questionable suicide note that one of the island rangers determines to be the deal sealer.
After discovering the deceased was set to marry a young lady from the Ahern family and the century old feud between the two families, the whole thing doesn’t sit right with the sassy sleuther. With the police chief making it clear there will be no investigation, Whitney calls to action her best friend Maribel and her boyfriend Felix to help get to the bottom of this mystery before a murderer goes free on the island.
She’ll have to play dirty while sorting through the local gossip and microfiche news articles to unravel the mysterious cause of the feud and uncover the unsavory truth behind young Leo’s death. She’s just hoping no one puts her on their radar for dirtier deeds.
