The Treasure Hunter's Daughter Margot Deguet Delury

Jade Adelson grew up on stories of a treasure hunting mother she's never met, told to her by her eccentric grandmother, Margaret. While her mother explores the world, Jade lives stagnantly in Paradise, North Carolina, a small town with one supermarket and an endless cycle of gossip. Two days after Jade's sixteenth birthday, the last member of Paradise's founding family passes away. Randy Banks lived a secluded life, but he was infamous throughout the village for his rumored family treasure. At his funeral, Jade and her best friend discover the first of a string of clues that appear to lead to this hidden bounty. Jade is launched into a treasure hunt of her own, and by the end of it, she will have unearthed much more than she set out to find, including the truth about her mother, her grandmother, and the former Randy Banks. The Treasure Hunter's Daughter, a story of buried treasure and secrets, will be out this coming May.
