Description

Leslie finds herself on a quiet October shore, the sea’s violet‑tinted waves crashing against the sand as a sudden storm sweeps in. With her loyal dog Rags at her heels, she wanders between modest bungalows, sharing quiet moments with her Aunt Marcia, who has come seeking the restorative peace of the isolated coast. The atmosphere is both tranquil and electric, hinting that the wind‑blown beach holds more than just shells and driftwood.

When a flash of torchlight catches something half‑buried in the sand, the girls’ curiosity turns to urgency. An enigmatic casket, a glint of green beads, and whispered rumors about a hidden “dragon” begin to surface, drawing Leslie into a puzzle that blends seaside folklore with real‑world intrigue. As she pieces together clues, the calm of the shoreline gives way to a subtle race against time, inviting listeners to follow her deductions and discover what secrets the ocean is keeping.
