Some Treasures Refuse to Stay Buried.

“Brinkley Josephine Taylor, you have lost your mind . . .”

Just days after her parents’ tragic death, Brinkley Taylor finds an old treasure map that’s been missing from her family’s possession for decades.

Encouraged by besties, Andi and Mavis, she trades their annual friends’ trip to a luxurious getaway for the untamed Louisiana swamps where secrets whisper through the cypress trees, danger lurks beneath the murky waters and X just might mark the spot.

“World’s Most Fun FUNraiser. . .”

Armed with questionable survival skills, the world’s most unreliable directions and a cover story flimsier than a mosquito net, they join a lively FUNraiser and outbid the locals at an auction for two rugged Cajuns and one eccentric New Orleans artist as their guides.

But it’s Brinkley’s charming guide, Diez Romero, whose pirate ancestry ties him to the alligator infested wetlands and maybe, the treasure itself.

A laugh-out-loud small town, romantic mystery with adventure, danger, undeniable chemistry and the magic of true friendship!

“The Bayou has Eyes and Ears . . .”

With the help of the enigmatic Tante Izzy, the fiery local legend whose wisdom is as sharp as her wit and with secrets of her own, Brinkley must decide how far she’s willing to go for answers.
