Finding an unexpected, to say the least, human body on the shore was the light keeper's nightmare. Wanting solitude was one thing and then being thrown into a mystery is quite another. The intertwining of people's lives is always a mystery. Read this and realize again what a small world this is.

The Story Comes to THE LIGHTKEEPER
Unfortunately, I recently read Mary Burton's THE LIGHTKEEPER'S WOMAN and these two books are amazingly alike. Since the lighthouse keeper isn't going anywhere, the story has to come to him.
Jesse Morgan has been hiding from life for the past 12 years. He, one of the beautiful people of Portland, had a wonderful wife, who had just announced that they were going to have a child. They were lost at a dangerous water crossing because the lightkeeper was involved in a poker game and forgot his job.
Now Jesse is a lightkeeper in a remote area in the Pacific Northwest. He keeps to himself and broods over his loss. One day, he rescues a woman from the dangerous waters. When he realizes she is pregnant, he is twice as upset. None of Jesse's helpers will take this lost woman from him; he is told that the woman is his destiny.
He rants and rages against this tiny woman who has yet to waken. When she does, Mary Dare increases his emotional turmoil. She is a real Pollyanna; she sees the bright side of everything. The comparison between Jesse's black grief and Mary's supreme cheerfulness began to grate after awhile.
This is a really well-written book; it's just that the topic has already been covered. In the later chapters, I did a few eye rolls over some of the dialog and/or scenes. Of course, the villain was as black as sin ? with no redeeming qualities.

Lightkeeper
Excellent story. Had to put down. Older historical time but easy to get the feel of the book.
Book itself was in great condition and receipt of book was prompt.

The Lightkeeper
Enjoyed this book, which was entertaining and fast-paced enough not to become boring. Susan Wiggs is an author who wrote one of my favorite books and that of several of my friends. That book was 'Just Breathe' and we all loved it.
