High on a limestone bluff above Lake Michigan, Roundstone Harbor Light has guided ships along the Door County shoreline for years. The McGinn family trimmed the wick, polished the great Fresnel lens, and faithfully kept the Light shining. But in the spring of 1874 when Kate McGinn brings the deadly disease of diphtheria into her home, everything changes. Nothing at the lighthouse -- or in the village nearby-- will ever be the same.
Set in 1874 in a fictional village, this beautifully researched novel is a moving story of grief and healing, the quiet courage to move forward after loss, the gift of unexpected friendships, and the life-changing power of love.
