Who wouldn't want to find a chest of buried treasure, ancient gold coins and exquisitely priceless jewelry, on their land? A treasure a sailor dead for over seventy years once found in the shallow waters of a distant island and later buried, hid, the remnants of at the end of his tragic life. The townspeople of Spookie have been searching, fighting and killing each other over it, for decades and no one has ever unearthed it. Abigail, Frank, Myrtle and her psychic grandniece, Glinda, are on the hunt for the treasure…and they might just find it with Glinda's and the dead sailor's help. For Frank, ex-Chicago homicide detective, there's also a new and dangerous case that brings him temporarily out of retirement and back to Chicago because it threatens his adopted daughter Laura's safety at the art college she is attending. There are three missing college students, young women, one a close friend of Laura's, and the Chicago police force is feverishly searching for them before their abductors kill them. Can Frank, with a little help from Glinda's visions, and his old partner Sam Cato, locate the abducted girls in time and save their lives?

The envelope’s files are full of disturbing facts concerning the unsolved crime and it piques Frank’s interest. Soon, against Abby’s wishes, he’s on the cold trail of what actually happened to Joel Sutton–had he been a victim of just an accident, as some have always believed, or did someone murder him?

Then along with those two new mysteries to unravel, of course, all of Spookie’s quirky town characters have returned to irritate, amuse and sleuth with Abby and Frank.
