When the Vandergrift sisters inherit a crumbling Long Island estate, they discover the legal paperwork is as tangled as their family dynamics. Gloria, the pragmatic oldest, tries to keep peace while Gwendolyn and Lena grapple with grief and uncertainty. Into this uneasy scene rides Roberta—known as Bobs—a spirited seventeen‑year‑old with a reputation for solving mysteries.
Bobs quickly becomes the unlikely catalyst, urging the sisters to confront the missing title to their home and the shadowy lawyer who may be hiding more than paperwork. As she bonds with each sister—whether by teasing Gwendolyn’s stubbornness or sharing apple blossoms with Lena—her sharp eye begins to uncover clues hidden in the mansion’s forgotten rooms. Listeners can expect witty banter, a touch of Victorian intrigue, and the first steps of a family mystery that promises both heart and clever sleuthing.
