Cara Mia Delgatto's cup runneth over with worries. Her ex-husband is refusing to pay their son's college tuition, her evil sister is pulling mean pranks, and her old boyfriend has broken her heart. And that's just the personal stuff. She's also concerned about keeping the cash register ringing at The Treasure Chest, her retail store specializing in upcycled, recycled, and repurposed décor items with a coastal theme. The media event that Cara plans turns nasty when reporter Kathy Simmons threatens to share unsavory details from the shopkeeper's past. Things get really dicey when Kathy mysteriously disappears. Cara's other problems seem trivial in comparison to...a murder investigation!
