About this listen

‘A warm, romantic mystery, beautifully structured and feelingly written’ Daily Mail?

At the heart of a tiny community in a remote village just inland from the Aberdeenshire coast stands an unexpected lighthouse…

Built two centuries ago by an eccentric landowner, the lighthouse has become home to the only bookshop for miles around.

Rachel is an incomer to the village. She arrived five years ago and found a place she could call home. So when the owner of the Lighthouse Bookshop dies suddenly, she steps in to take care of the place, trying to help it survive the next stage of its life.

But when she discovers a secret in the lighthouse, long kept hidden, she realises there is more to the history of the place than she could ever imagine. Can she uncover the truth about the lighthouse’s first owner? And can she protect the secret history of the place?

'The central themes of home and homelessness, love and loss, art and history, are all woven skillfully into this bookish? mystery. Dialogue is sharp and believable, and the mystery of the lighthouse’s history keeps you guessing' Cumbria Life and Bury & West Suffolk Magazine?
