"X" marks the spot...

Ever since a pirate ship wrecked on the outskirts of Keystone Village, rumor has circulated that it brought with it more gold than Fort Knox. Ella has glimpsed one of the crew members running through town, but she never imagined getting a close-up introduction to the man while hanging from a noose on his own ship.

When the body mysteriously vanishes, she suspects foul play. Others, however, suspect she saw a ghost or has finally lost her mind. Soon, she begins to wonder if both might not be the case.

Without a body, the local sheriff can't investigate, leaving Ella to have to do the digging on her own. Forget buried treasure. She needs to find the killer to prove she's not crazy - well, not crazy enough to kill, anyway.

A second body turns up, and the victim is linked to the pirate and his treasure. Is the gold cursed? Or is it the phantom pirate come back to seek his revenge?

As her investigation ramps up, helped along by her two geriatric sidekicks, she begins following clues that might answer who and what is behind the town's time jumps. And with that, she just might learn the means to finally return home.

A fun mystery full of adventure, twists, coffee, and friendship.

This is book five in the funny, quirky Traveling Town mystery series.
