There Will Be Pirates: An Old City Mystery

By Stacey Horan

IN THE OLD CITY, THE DEAD HAVE STORIES TO TELL.

Riding a wave of success after her last two high-profile cases, Sidney Stone is on the verge of becoming St. Augustine's most sought-after private investigator. Her next client, however, presents a unique challenge: uncovering missing jewelry concealed among a deceased woman's effects. What seems like a straightforward job soon turns into a labyrinthine mystery, further complicated by the woman's hidden secrets.

With the help of Leo Roberts, a teenager gifted with the ability to see and communicate with the dead, Sid embarks on the hunt for the missing jewels. What she uncovers is a maze of valuable treasure, mysterious love letters, a long-running con, dangerous mafia connections-and, of course, murder.

As the duo navigates this treacherous terrain, they discover that people will go to great lengths to exploit opportunities, even at the cost of hurting others. The Old City is filled with modern-day pirates, both living and dead. Sid and Leo find them lurking in the most unexpected places, including frighteningly close to home.
