The harsh winter of 1787 and the increase in taxes they must pay force Jacques LaMonde and his brother Ettiene to accept the idea of moonraking proposed by a shipwrecked English sailor whom they rescued. The fires they built on the boulder-strewn beach during storms lured unsuspecting ships to crash there leaving the merchandise from the ship's hold that washed up on shore theirs to sell. After amasssing a fortune, they buried it and escaped with their lives to Canada after drawing a map of the gold's location on the back of Jacques' wife's cookie recipe which they kept in the family Bible.
Two hundred years later, the LaMonde family members agree to publish the recipe in a church fundraiser cookbook being published by Molly Donner and her committee. The renewed interest in locating the map and finding the treasure takes two treasure hunters and a killer to the vineyards of France to search for the fortune.
