![]() ![]() Eighteen-year-old Amy Tucker and her dad, a detective, go to a small town named Seabrook, intending to only spend one night there. Here’s a synopsis to help explain what I mean. ![]() ![]() (Don’t get too invested in the lighthouse, it’s effectively a red herring.) Instead of pursuing spookiness, instead of following leads to solve a mystery, the story becomes a fantastical exploration of “spirit” and soul-searching. Not that I wanted the plot to be predictable I mean that it’s set up like a mystery and perhaps a ghost story, but it’s neither of those. That’s not what I was expecting, and I was disappointed with how it turned out. It’s beautifully written, bursting with heart and hope, takes one to the pits of despair and leads one back to thinking everything will be okay. This was a wonderful story about several characters’ journeys through grief and difficult life circumstances. I would like to thank Christopher Parker, Beacon Press, and NetGalley for allowing me to listen to a free audiobook ARC in exchange for an honest review. Lots of heart but misleading and disappointing ![]()
