The story revolves around a New York couple, William and Rebecca Stone (a.k.a. Billy and Becca). Becca is a graduate student at Columbia University. They meet when Billy conducts a lecture on subliminal advertising. There was an immediate chemical reaction, and one year later, they were married. Billy is an account executive and partner in a small advertising firm. Becca is part owner and teacher at the Ross School, a successful private progressive educational institution on the Upper East Side, Manhattan, for children ages two to five. The school gets its name from the first letter of each of the four principal owners/teachers: Elizabeth Romano (R), Catherine O'Neal (O), Samantha Smith (S), and Rebecca Stone (S). Sam and Becca were childhood friends, went through Columbia together. They met Cathy and Liz in graduate school. The four became immediate friends and decided they would start a Nursery school after graduation. Billy and Becca are vacationing in California, celebrating their one-year anniversary and belated honeymoon. After touring all over the state, they spend their last week at one of the rare six-star resorts in the world, Las Palmas Resort and Spa in Cabo, San Lucas. Billy surprises Becca with a day at the spa. Perusing What to Do in Baja, he comes across an ad entitled Finders Keepers. The ad asks, How much of a gambler are you? Come to our auction and bid on unknown contents left in storage bins for more than ten years. Who knows, you might find unclaimed treasures or junk. Winning bidder has one year to vacate contents after which they revert to Finders Keepers LLC. Billy thinks, Why not? He decides to go for it. At Finders Keepers, there is a registration desk where he receives paddle #151, which identifies him to be used in the bidding process. He bids and wins bin 117. Soon after they are befriended by Dolly and Sonny Morrison, who own a BandB. The young couple move from their hotel and accept the Morrisons' hospitality. Little did they know that there was a treasure in bin 117. They become entangled in a web of mystery and embezzlement. Finders Keepers contains the element of a surprise ending.
