What's the mystery all about

While sorting through treasures in Nana's attic, Lara Langston discovers a collection of old photographs that raise more questions than answers.

Days later, a vintage quilt unexpectedly appears among the raffle prizes at Pringle's annual Labor Day Potluck. To everyone else, it's simply a beautiful antique quilt. To Lara, it's something far more surprising.

She recognizes it.

Certain she has seen the quilt before, Lara begins investigating how it found its way to Pringle. What starts as a simple question soon uncovers long-forgotten family connections, hidden pieces of the past, and clues that reach far beyond Iowa.

As the mystery unfolds, Lara discovers that sometimes the most important treasures aren't found by searching for them—they find you.

Join Lara Langston for Pot O' Luck , the third installment in the Lucky Duck Mini-Mystery Series, where luck, family, and a remarkable quilt come together in an unforgettable adventure.” ●

What is the mystery all about?

Grab your shades, catch your breath, and thread your needle—Surf’s Up is the next wave in the Mystery Five-0 quilt series! As you stitch your way through each clue, you’ll follow fabric sleuth Lara Langston as she returns to the Hawaiian islands, where the rhythm of the ocean promises rest… and delivers anything but. After a powerful storm rolls through the coast, an unclaimed surfboard washes ashore—weathered, unfamiliar, and unlike anything the locals have ever seen. No one knows where it came from. No one knows who it belongs to. But those who’ve seen it up close can’t shake the feeling that it wasn’t shaped for ordinary waves. When whispers begin to circulate and questions go unanswered, Lara’s curiosity is impossible to ignore. With her Featherweight at the ready and her instincts sharper than ever, she begins to study the board—its lines, its markings, and the subtle details others overlook. What she discovers will pull her deeper with every clue… like a current she can’t resist. Join The Surf’s Up Mystery Quilt—because with Mystery Five-0, every stitch draws you further into the tide.”
