After moving to St. Croix for her snowbird months, Charlie inadvertently helped to solve several crimes. Her interests immediately turned from genealogy to crime solving. When her oldest son Jake visits her from Pennsylvania, he brings Charlie's heirloom locket watch that was once owned by her great, great grandmother who had immigrated to the island in the 1800s. While cleaning and oiling the watch, Jake discovers a clue to the mysterious etching on the rear casing of the watch. Charlie and Jake set out to solve the mystery. While doing so, Charlie's gentleman friend, better known as the Chief, becomes the prime suspect in a drug case when heroin is found on his powerboat. Charlie does some digging and identifies the drug sellers while Jake manages to capture a thief who tries to steal the locket watch. After all the bad guys are in custody, Charlie & Family solve the clue and find a golden treasure hidden by her great, great grandparents.
