About this listen

Every family has its secrets. Josephina “Joey” Harris wouldn’t mind if her family still had a few of their own after a lawsuit tarnishes their name. When an opportunity opens to become a temporary keeper of a decommissioned lighthouse on a North Carolina island, she takes the opportunity to escape the scrutiny of her small town to oversee its restoration.

Soon Joey discovers strange notes tucked deep in the crevices of the lighthouse’s old stone walls—pages torn from a keeper’s log recounting harrowing rescues at sea. When things start to go amiss on the island, locals are convinced that it is the ghost of the lighthouse keeper and his daughter who were lost at sea during World War II.

As Joey sifts through decades of rumors and legends and puts together the pieces of the past, a love story emerges—one that’s clearly not over yet.

“An emotionally gripping must-read [that] reminds us that life is a beautiful gift and love overcomes all.”—Julie Cantrell, New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of Perennials

The secrets

It was good to hear the unfurling of the secrets as the book moved along. My fave character was Peter, charming young man

Sweet story of forgiveness

The narrator wasn’t a favorite. Her voice was too much of a whisper and monotone at times. She mispronounced several basic words.

Beautiful story of hope and restoration!

Excellent story that weaves the past into the present in a beautiful way. The author makes the characters come to life and the reader is swept right into the story. Highly recommend.

Very Good Audio Story

Nice story with fairly predictable plot. Good audio recording. Enjoyable “read”. I would recommend listening.

Written and performed like a bad Hallmark movie.

The book read like 9th grade English class writing assignment, with repetitive phrases (ducking of heads and biting of lower lips) in every chapter. The deep dark family secret was neither. And the weird theological shift near the end was strange. The book and narration just fell flat for me.
