When a Congressional Medal belonging to World War II veteran Deanie Spangler goes missing at her hundredth birthday party, Priscilla is determined to find answers to the theft. Who would stoop so low to steal a keepsake from a decorated war hero? Can they recover the medal before all traces of its whereabouts dissolve? As Priscilla and Mildred scour the museum where the party was held, they begin to notice other artifacts missing. Is the thief preparing to strike again?

As the annual Martha’s Vineyard International Film Festival is set to begin, Priscilla accompanies Mildred and a group of islanders to receive delivery of one of the giant sharks used as a prop in the blockbuster hit Jaws, which has been filmed on the island. But when they arrive on the beach where the shark was to be delivered, it’s not there. Mildred quickly enlists Priscilla’s help in finding the shark, but Priscilla doesn’t even know where to begin.

Meanwhile, Priscilla agreed to host an event for Third Time Productions at the lighthouse, but everything seems to be going wrong. Can Priscilla possibly find the missing shark while racing to fulfill all the production company’s many needs?

An announcement that the Boston based public television show American Antiques is coming to Martha's Vineyard to shoot an episode has the island's residents digging through drawers and attics in search of hidden treasures. The show's hosts are famous for revealing the worth of unsung antiques that are brought to the show. Priscilla's cousin Gail asks Priscilla to help her search a friend's cottage at the Camp Association for valuable items to be appraised. But when their search turns up a large model ship that looks old, Wanda, the cottage's owner, is baffled. How did the ship get there, and, perhaps even more importantly, who left it there? As Priscilla sets out to investigate this seemingly innocuous collectible, she finds herself drawn into a bizarre web of intrigue that stretches from Boston to the cozy environs of Martha's Vineyard and back.
