| Plot Summary of The Shell Seekers |
|---|
"Penelope Keeling has three children, two of which are after her fortune when she dies. The painting called the Shell Seekers is worth a fortune. This painting was made by her father, and symbolized her unconventional life. When her grown children, especially Nancy and Noel, (the users), realize this painting is worth a fortune they each have an idea as to what Penelope should do with it. Olivia is Penelope's genuinely caring daughter, and therefore, in the end, will benefit. "
