In October Del Corriveau with friends Marco and Ty take a boat trip to a quiet, pristine cove nestled in a peninsula just east of Pyke Island. The property around the cove was once considered an ideal place for a shorefront campground, but bankruptcy led to the property being abandoned. Then the squatters moved in, and the good neighbors of Des Isle, an exclusive summer community, tried everything in their power to remove them. All that happened years ago and was resolved when the squatters left on their own.
Or did they? Under the cove's placid surface, a mystery lies on the gravel and sand bottom waiting to be snagged. Not surprisingly, Del and friends find it and raise the ghosts, some dead, some very much alive, still keeping their secrets.
