Description
I lost my Wild and Domestic during a sunset stroll along the Space Coast. Around 6:15 p.m. on Tuesday I realized it was not in my bag as I stood near the Cocoa Beach Pier, where the spray from the waves catches the lights. The cover is a faded blue, with a white spine and a pink ribbon bookmark that sticks out when you open it. I carry it everywhere, and it felt like losing a quiet part of myself—the wind, the gulls, and the glow of the sea at dusk. If it turned up anywhere near the pier or the promenade, it would mean the world to see it again.

How to safely get your item back
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the finder before meeting
- Ask them to describe a detail not shown in your listing, such as an engraving, scratch, or contents.
- Request a clear photo of the item from an angle you did not post.
- Do not pay any release, shipping, or storage fee.
- Do not share your full address until you have verified them.
Meet in a safe, public place
- Police stations, café entrances, transport hubs, and shop foyers all work.
- Meet during daylight hours where there is CCTV and foot traffic.
- Avoid private homes, car parks at night, or isolated locations.
Bring someone with you
- Tell a friend or family member where you are meeting and when.
- Share your live location with them during the handoff.
- For high-value items, consider contacting your local police station for advice first.
Keep communication on lostandfound.io
- Use the in-app message thread so there is a record if something goes wrong.
- Do not move to WhatsApp, SMS, or email until you have exchanged a verifying detail.
- Never share bank details, government ID numbers, or copies of your ID.
