When Daffy Hetherington arrives in sleepy coastal Wales, she expects a quiet—possibly boring—holiday. But everything changes when a squall of wind brings the dazzling Derrick family into harbor aboard the sleek yacht Gent Peter. With them comes mystery, laughter, and a whirlwind treasure hunt that pulls Daffy into the kind of adventure she’s only read about in books.
From moonlit estuaries to tide-hidden creeks, Daffy follows cryptic clues through Britain’s breathtaking coastal backwaters. But not everyone wants her to find the prize. Spoiled rival Una Atkins would rather scuttle the ship than share the secret. And when eerie sounds echo through the night and tempers rise, Daffy learns that true courage isn’t about being fearless—it’s about staying the course when others drift away.
