This is a story of three sisters, Caroline, Clea and Skye and their mother Agusta who live in a New England town. A tragedy took place in their house many years earlier on Christmas Eve--a man shot himself in their house in front of the family. Years later his son comes to town to retrieve treasure from a shipwreck that had taken place in the 1700s. The son and Caroline had been pen pals for many years and their correspondence had abrubtly stopped when he had found out the truth about his fathers death. Skye is a sculpture who likes alcohol. Caroline owns an inn in town and Clea is married with two children. The man, Joe, finds the ship and the treasure and brings it up to be salvaged. Later, after Joe and Caroline have reconciled, they leave for Greece together. This book was fine; I believe my preference is non-fiction.
