The Light Keeper's Legacy

by Kathleen Ernst

Overview

An island's history holds clues to a modern murder.

Solitude at last! Museum curator Chloe Ellefson jumps at the chance to spend time on Wisconsin's Rock Island, a state park with no electricity or roads. Hired as a consultant for a project to restore the island's historic 1857 lighthouse, her research turns up fascinating tough-as-nails women from the past.

Chloe's tranquility is spoiled when a dead woman washes ashore. Is it an accidental drowning? Or has tension over tighter fishing regulations reached a dangerous boiling point? When a second body is found, Chloe finds herself trapped on remote Rock Island with a killer.

This book contains a map of Rock Island, a cast of characters, and an author's note with links to additional resources.

Editorial Reviews

"Deftly flipping back and forth in time in alternating chapters, the author builds up two mystery cases and cleverly weaves them back together." ---Library Journal
