Amidst the relentless turmoil of a remote and storm-battered island, where tempestuous waves relentlessly assail rugged cliffs, a story of extraordinary love unfolds. In this untamed landscape, where the elements rage in symphony, dwells Hanna, a resolute lighthouse keeper who has found purpose in taming the very tempests that lash the desolate shores. One fateful day, destiny's capricious hand intervenes, delivering a shipwrecked sailor into Hanna's care. Santana, an enigmatic figure with no recollection of his past, emerges from the wreckage like a blank canvas awaiting the brushstrokes of forgotten experiences. As Hanna nurses Santana back to health and aids him in piecing together the fragments of his lost life, an unspoken bond takes root between them. Their vulnerabilities converge, and in each other's presence, they find solace transcending the constraints of language, time, and memory. Together, they embark on a journey through the island's wild beauty, unearthing concealed treasures amidst the untamed terrain. Amid moments of tenderness and understanding, they uncover the profound comfort that accompanies shared experiences. Yet, beneath the surface of their burgeoning connection lurk the shadows of Santana's missing memories. As their lives entwine like the turbulent currents of the sea, they are unable to evade the specter of Santana's forgotten past. Confronting the secrets that could rend them asunder, they grapple with their deepest apprehensions. Their choices will determine whether the unbreakable bond they've nurtured will endure the trials they face, or if it will fracture irreparably. "The Lighthouse Keeper's Love" weaves a narrative of tenacity, absolution, and the enduring potency of love to serve as a guiding light through the bleakest hours. Join us on an odyssey brimming with emotions as tumultuous as gusting winds, and a love that radiates as luminously as the beacon from the lighthouse's tower.

John Cook's ripping life story exposes Tasmania's old kero-fuelled lighthouses: relentless physically and emotionally demanding labour, done under the often cruel vagaries of nature. Noble work that can ultimately redeem a lost soul. Or break them.' MATTHEW EVANS I loved the life of the island, because I knew my body was more alive than it was on the mainland. People asked how we stood the isolation and boredom, but in some ways, it was more stimulating to have your senses turned up. In Tasmania, John Cook is known as 'The Keeper of the Flame'. As one of Australia's longest-serving lighthouse keepers, John spent 26 years tending Tasmania's well-known kerosene 'lights' at Tasman Island, Maatsuyker Island and Bruny Island. From sleepless nights keeping the lights alive, battling the wind and sea as they ripped at gutters and flooded stores, raising a joey, tending sheep and keeping ducks and chickens, the life of a keeper was one of unexpected joy and heartbreak. But for John, nothing was more heartbreaking than the introduction of electric lights, and the lighthouses that were left empty forever. Evocatively told, The Last Lighthouse Keeper is a love story between a man and a dying way of life, as well as a celebration of wilderness and solitude.

A Toronto Star bestseller * A Globe and Mail bestseller * A New York Post "must-read" book The Light Between Oceans meets The Language of Flowers in this beautiful debut novel by an acclaimed Canadian children’s author. Elizabeth's eyes have failed. She can no longer read the books she loves or see the paintings that move her spirit, but her mind remains sharp and music fills the vacancy left by her blindness as she ruminates on the secrets in her family's past. When her late father's journals are discovered on a shipwrecked boat, she enlists the help of a delinquent teenager, Morgan, who is completing community service at the senior home where Elizabeth lives. An unlikely relationship develops between the two as they work to decipher the books and are drawn into the musty words he penned more than seventy years before as he manned the lighthouse on Porphyry Island. In the process they come to realize that they are both connected to the isolated island, their lives touched by Elizabeth's enigmatic twin sister Emily and the beautiful but harsh Lake Superior environment. While the discovery of Morgan's connection sheds light onto her own family mysteries, the faded pages of the journals hold more questions than answers for Elizabeth, and threaten the very core of who she is. Combining an emotional story of human connection with a mystery spanning decades, this tale of family, identity, and art will captivate and resonate with readers.
