When Priscilla’s lighthouse is set ablaze, she launches her own arson investigation. Her search for the arson takes her all over Martha’s Vineyard—and directly into the path of danger—before she finally discovers the shocking truth.
The summer tourist season is in full swing, and Priscilla Latham Grant is enjoying the visitors to the family history museum, housed in the lighthouse she inherited from her aunt Marjorie. But when one visitor comes bearing a deed he claims gives him rights to the land upon which the lighthouse sits, Priscilla is compelled to learn more.
As the annual Martha’s Vineyard International Film Festival is set to begin, Priscilla accompanies Mildred and a group of islanders to receive delivery of one of the giant sharks used as a prop in the blockbuster hit Jaws, which has been filmed on the island. But when they arrive on the beach where the shark was to be delivered, it’s not there. Mildred quickly enlists Priscilla’s help in finding the shark, but Priscilla doesn’t even know where to begin.
Meanwhile, Priscilla agreed to host an event for Third Time Productions at the lighthouse, but everything seems to be going wrong. Can Priscilla possibly find the missing shark while racing to fulfill all the production company’s many needs?
Priscilla’s decision to take the painting above her fireplace to be cleaned reveals a startling find. Beneath the layers of paint hides a famous painting that was stolen fifty years ago. How did it end up in Priscilla’s cottage? When the painting vanishes, Priscilla finds herself both a suspect and in danger from someone who might be the real thief. And her search for the truth uncovers new facts about the argument that ended the relationship between her mother and Aunt Marjorie.
Meanwhile, Priscilla learns that Gerald’s daughter and son-in-law could be moving for a new job- and Gerald is considering retiring and moving with them. Will Priscilla be able to process and acknowledge her growing feelings for the handsome Coast Guard captain before it’s too late?
When a huge November storm topples a tree on Joan’s property and unearths a skeleton wearing a ring last seen on socialite Bitsy Parker ninety years ago, Priscilla is thrown into another mystery. But while Priscilla is trying to prove these are Bitsy’s remains, others on the island want to uncover the story too—including Priscilla’s nemesis, Professor Franklin Mayweather, who hopes to write a best-seller and revive his career. Will Priscilla be able to put past offenses aside to solve this mystery? Amid all the chaos, a young woman appears at Joan’s doorstep, seemingly in disguise, and Priscilla is convinced she needs help. When the young woman’s identity and reason for being on the island are revealed, can Priscilla help her new friend right the wrongs that led her to Martha’s Vineyard?
It’s Christmas time in Martha’s Vineyard, and Priscilla wants to find the perfect gifts for friends and family. While she and Joan are browsing in a local art store, a man arrives who seems to know Joan, and she is clearly smitten with him. Despite her cousin’s assurances that Calvin Gallico is simply a friendly, reputable businessman, something just doesn’t sit well with Priscilla. Why has Joan never mentioned him? Could she possibly be falling head-overheels for the man after only a brief acquaintance? As the days draw closer to Christmas, Priscilla finds other reasons not to trust Calvin. But can Priscilla protect Joan without severing her close relationship with her cousin—or pushing her farther into Calvin’s arms?
When hard-earned fishermen pension funds disappear, all eyes are on the only person with access to the online account—Sonya Fleming, the flashy selectwoman with high-dollar fashion sense. When Joan asks Priscilla to get involved on her dear friend’s behalf, Priscilla learns that Sonya is no spendthrift, despite her reputation of extravagance. But if not Sonya, who could be bilking funds from the island’s fishermen? And can the depleted funds be replenished for the fishermen on Martha’s Vineyard waters? As Priscilla looks for the answers that seem so elusive, Uncle Hugh suffers a medical emergency that causes Priscilla to, once again, reflect on how frail and precious life truly is. Can Priscilla offer her cousins the support they each need as Uncle Hugh begins the road to recovery?
Priscilla is thrilled when her friend Eliza Jamison solicits her help with a special surprise wedding gift for her husband-to-be, Carson Fletcher. Unbeknownst to Carson, Eliza has purchased a perfectly restored classic 1957 Chevy Bel Air—a convertible, no less—and is having it delivered to the island. But when the car arrives and is stored in Gerald’s garage, it vanishes—just thirty-six hours before the wedding ceremony. Priscilla is distraught and feels personally responsible for its disappearance, so she sets out to find the classic car. Can she find and return the vehicle to its rightful owners in time for the nuptials, or will Eliza’s dreams of riding off into the sunset with her new husband be crushed?
When Priscilla sees a small plane go down over the marsh, she immediately calls 911. But the authorities insist no distress calls were made, and no planes were reported missing. When she finally locates the downed craft, she discovers that the pilot has vanished, and all signs indicate he wanted to disappear. What was on that plane that the pilot was so desperate to hide? Priscilla sets out to solve the mystery—and soon finds herself enmeshed in a plot that might prove too dangerous even for her. Meanwhile, when Gerald asks Priscilla to put together an Easter egg hunt at the Coast Guard station, she looks forward to working with him on it. But the reality doesn’t match her expectations as the ever-more-complicated project drives a wedge between them.
It’s springtime in Martha’s Vineyard, and Priscilla attends the annual Lambapalooza festival going on at Derry Wilson’s farm. When a cryptic message is sheared into Derry’s prize sheep Sally, just as the animal is about to go into auction, Priscilla—aided by Gerald and her cousins—sets out to find out who’s behind the prank. Is it the animal activist who pickets the event each year, the rival farmers with a history of conflict with Derry, or someone else intent on mischief? Meanwhile, something is troubling Gerald, and Priscilla finds it almost as much of a mystery as the sabotaged sheep. Can she uncover answers to both puzzling mysteries?
An announcement that the Boston-based public television show American Antiques is coming to Martha’s Vineyard to shoot an episode has the island’s residents digging through drawers and attics in search of hidden treasures. The show’s hosts are famous for revealing the worth of unsung antiques that are brought to the show. Priscilla’s cousin Gail asks Priscilla to help her search a friend’s cottage at the Camp Association for valuable items to be appraised. But when their search turns up a large model ship that looks old, Wanda, the cottage’s owner, is baffled. How did the ship get there, and, perhaps more importantly, who left it there? As Priscilla sets out to investigate this seemingly innocuous collectible, she finds herself drawn into a bizarre web of intrigue that stretches from Boston to the cozy environs of Martha’s Vineyard and back.
