Read The Map in the Attic Storyline:

As flames devoured David Coyne’s family home in Stony Point, Maine, Annie Dawson slept soundly, catching up on a much needed break from the tiring and seemingly endless chore of cleaning out the contents of the attic in Grey Gables, the family house she had inherited from her grandmother. It was a daunting task that tested her patience. But the next morning when she opened a box marked “For yard sale” and found a vintage, clown-shaped cookie jar stuffed with a large piece of embroidered linen, her curiosity was piqued. This is something to show the girls in the Hook and Needle Club, she thought as she pondered the strange design and meticulous handiwork. When Annie shows it to Mary Beth, the proprietor of the local needlecraft shop, little do they realize the connection between the terrible house fire and the vintage piece of embroidery stuffed into the ceramic cookie jar. Little did she or Mary Beth know how there might be a connection between the terrible house fire and the vintage piece of embroidery stuffed into a cookie jar in Annie’s attic. The friends in the Hook and Needle Club believe it is a stitched map of the coastline. As they help Annie track down the provenance of the piece, they uncover a swath of Stony Point history that has been long buried. And as with all secrets, these discoveries can uncover stories about activities that some Stony Point citizens would prefer not be revealed. Danger seems to stalk Annie as she helps the Coyne family settle into temporary quarters. Could the strange embroidered map have something to do with it?
