Welcome to Birch Crossing, where history has a way of refusing to stay buried.
After decades of teaching together, retired history teacher Margaret Maggie Sullivan and retired science teacher Eleanor Ellie Brooks thought retirement would mean quieter days. Instead, they spend their time volunteering at the Birch Crossing Historical Society, creating historical scavenger hunts that bring their charming coastal Maine town's rich past to life.
But while preparing the Society's biggest event of the year, an unexpected discovery inside an abandoned shipbuilder's warehouse uncovers a secret someone is desperate to keep hidden. When a mysterious break-in, missing documents, and a string of suspicious encounters begin pointing toward one of Birch Crossing's oldest founding families, Maggie and Ellie find themselves following clues that have remained buried for more than 150 years.
Armed with old maps, local legends, loyal dogs, and an unshakable friendship, the two former teachers must uncover the truth before the past is lost forever.
Because in Birch Crossing...
Every old town has its secrets.
