One night, while Mary is working late at the bookshop, a shadowy figure leaves a box of books at her door. All of the books have beautiful covers clearly done by the same artist, and inside each book is an old letter addressed to a man named Jacob. To Mary's shock, the letters were written by her mother. The letters would simply be a sweet ode to young love, but the last letter hints at regret that could change everything Mary and Betty thought they knew about their mother.

When Mary tries to refinance the mortgage on the bookshop, her application is denied because of the large balance on her new credit card. But she hasn't opened a new account and certainly hasn't been on any spending spree. Mary is the victim of identity theft! Mary has to prove the credit card isn't hers, which means finding the person who stole her personal information. Who has access? The postal carrier who keeps redirecting mail to his own pockets? The nurse of the women's clinic where Mary applied to volunteer? Or the woman in charge of the matchmaking fund-raiser that Mary was persuaded to sign up for? As she races to clear her name, she realizes that the true identity of her identity theft could be the person she least suspects.
One day Mary notices a young woman sitting in her bookshop. As the afternoon passes, the woman remains, pretending to read a book and clearly waiting for someone who never arrives. When Mary approaches her, she tearfully confesses that she doesn't remember anything before that day. The only clue she has to her identity is a note she found in her pocket when she woke up on the beach, which says, "Katie, arrive at Mary's bookshop at 1:12." Mary takes Katie under her wing, and together they scour Ivy Bay for clues to discover who Katie really is. But after learning about a recent mugging in town as well as a man who seems to be following Katie, Mary thinks the more important question might be what - or who - caused Katie to lose her memory in the first place?
