Description: In 1921 Celena Jackson fled Fire Island after her mother's tragic death and an unfulfilled promise to teach her younger brother Joshua the gospel which her embittered father Matthew, a lighthouse keeper, refused to allow. Five years later, when Matthew suffers serious injuries and Joshua pleads for Celena's help, she returns to her childhood home with a painful tangle of emotions--and the realization that someone on the island wants her gone.
