Verity gets tricked into a weekend away on a private island with her sister and their boyfriends. While Verity isn’t fan of Alec, the weekend gets even worse when the foursome pairs up for a treasure hunt, forcing them to spend even more time together.

As the team works to uncover clues in the treasure hunt, they soon realize there’s real pirate’s treasure that’s being dug up…and there is no escaping the island or the person who is willing to kill for that treasure. Can Verity figure out who the killer is or will she be sunken like an old ship and left to rot in the waters surrounding the island?

While this is book 12 in this series, I haven’t read any others and that may have been a bit of a mistake. While I followed along just fine, I felt like I was missing some things that may have provided some background. I’ll definitely check out the previous books and go from there.
