After suffering a personal tragedy Abby Sullivan buys a huge old seaside mansion she has never even seen, packs up her life in San Francisco, and moves to Holiday Bay Maine, where she is adopted, quite against her will, by a huge Maine Coon Cat named Rufus, a drifter with her own tragic past named Georgia, and a giant dog with an inferiority complex named Ramos. What Abby thought she needed was alone time to heal. What she ended up with was, an inn she never knew she wanted, a cat she couldn't seem to convince to leave, and a new family she'd never be able to live without. In book 4 in the series, the remodel is almost complete and Abby and Georgia are planning a huge grand opening. The only thing left for Abby to do before Lonnie can wrap things up is to go through the items left in the attic by prior residents. Abby is just about to get started when a woman named Trinity Roswell shows up claiming to be the great, great, great, niece of Abagail Chesterton, the wife of the man who built the house, Chamberlain Westminster. Trinity, a woman in her thirties, is doing a family history and has questions about Abagail. Abby only knows what she has been told by others but decides to help the woman locate the information she is seeking. They visit an old cemetery and come away with more questions than answers. While Abby and Trinity seek out the last of the secrets the house once held, Colt is busy with his own cold case murder, Tanner has a new litter of puppies, Nikki is dating a man Georgia doesn't like and doesn't trust, and Annie notifies Abby about a death in the family.

Of course, no matter how well anyone plans, life adds complications as we make our way through each day. This wonderful addition to the series adds not only one or two but several mysteries to solve, as well as touching on a continuing theme that has been woven into all the books.
Although we are told that Abby's deceased husband has been cleared of all suspicion of wrong doing on his job as a cop, I still feel it could come back to play a roll somewhere down the line. I was happy that her sister, Annie, is also not totally out of Abby's life.
The book has everything we love about a Kathi Daley series - community events and adorable animals and food! Oh so much delicious food. Even without recipes given, my mouth was watering and I wanted to call friends over for a cook-out.
It also has a cold case mystery that the local law enforcement is puzzling out, some ancestry research that is popular today, including the mystery of a grave with only a single name. I thought I knew the answer to that one early on, but it kept my interest until proven. And of course all those secrets and treasures stored in the attic that had me anxiously awaiting this book.
Roll it all together and I had to read this book in one sitting!
So find yourself a comfortable spot and grab a cold drink. Turn off your phone ringer and enjoy! (
