Salt, secrets, and a killer sense of timing
Welcome to Gasper’s Cove, Nova Scotia where beach cleanups turn up murder clues and the past won’t stay buried. When a message in a bottle dated 1962 surfaces near the abandoned lighthouse, shopkeeper and sewing teacher Valerie Rankin thinks it’s just smalltown gossip fodder until a visiting lawyer falls to her death from the cliff and Valerie’s friend Catherine is arrested, with a quilting tool as key evidence.
With a nosy ghost hunter, a secretive heritage officer, rumrunner legends, and a town split over saving its lighthouse, Valerie must stitch together the truth before history and someone dangerous strikes again.
