USA Today best-selling author Kathi Daley brings you a heartwarming mystery series about finding answers and fostering hope while building friendships and embracing the magic of life by the sea and small-town holidays.

Ainsley Holloway had come to Gooseberry Bay to find answers about her past. She’d come to find an explanation for the dreams that haunted her after the death of the cop who’d both rescued and raised her. And she’d come to identify the family she couldn’t remember but knew in her heart she’d once belonged to.

Ainsley hoped that by finding these answers, she’d also find healing. She hoped that once she’d resurrected the memories buried deep in her mind, she’d find peace.

The Cottage at Gooseberry Bay is a series about not only finding answers, but finding hope. It’s a series about family and friendship. It’s a series about shared holidays, festivals, and celebrations. It’s a series about shared heartbreak and hardship. And it’s a series about the bond that can be forged among strangers when tragedy binds two or more individuals with a common goal.

In book nine in the series, Adam is away on business, leaving Archie to keep tabs on Skeet and the Geek Squad, who have been participating in a series of geocaching challenges. The squad has been doing quite well and is invited to join a closed group where the caches are treasures worthy of finding. The problem is that the gang begins to suspect there may be more going on than simple treasure hunts. They enlist Ainsley's help to get to the bottom of things.

Meanwhile, Ainsley is nervously awaiting the okay to schedule a visit with a very important person in her life, and Parker is assigned a story that seems to have more twists than the Gooseberry River.
