Treasure Trapped
(2025)(Book 14 in the Sit, Stay, Sleep Cozy Mystery series)
A Story by Patti Benning
Sometimes hidden treasure…
Can be deadly.
When Sadie Barton schedules a simple upgrade to her charming small-town motel, she expects nothing more exciting than clearer communication. But when the service technician uncovers what looks suspiciously like an old treasure map tucked behind the drywall, things spin out of control faster than ice cream melting in the Georgia sun.
Word travels fast in small towns, most times too fast. Before Sadie can even process the discovery, curious locals, eager treasure hunters, and opportunistic out-of-towners begin swarming the motel, convinced that hidden riches are just waiting to be found. With tempers flaring and loyalties shifting, chaos replaces cozy in a hurry.
Things take a dark turn when an attempt to steal the map ends in tragedy. Suddenly, Sadie and her best friend Penny find themselves thrust into an unexpected murder investigation. With their loyal canine companions sniffing out clues and danger lurking around every corner, the amateur sleuths must race to uncover the truth.
If they can prove the treasure is nothing but rumor, life might return to normal. But if the map leads somewhere real… Sadie may just have to dig up more than gold to keep her community safe.
