Between the Sound and Sea

A Novel
Her family name tarnished, Josephina escapes to a remote North Carolina island to oversee the restoration of a lighthouse--one complete with ghost stories, rumors, and notes tucked into the old stone walls. Perhaps if she can untangle the secrets of the past she can restore a family's reputation and correct the course of her own life in the process.

Every family has its secrets
Josephina "Joey" Harris wouldn't mind if her family still had a few of their own after a lawsuit tarnishes their name. When an opportunity opens to become a temporary keeper of a decommissioned lighthouse on a North Carolina island, she takes the opportunity to escape the scrutiny of her small town to oversee its restoration.  
 
Soon Joey discovers strange notes tucked deep in the crevices of the lighthouse's old stone walls--pages torn from a keeper's log recounting harrowing rescues at sea. When things start to go amiss on the island, locals are convinced that it is the ghost of the lighthouse keeper and his daughter who were lost at sea during World War II.

As Joey sifts through decades of rumors and legends and puts together the pieces of the past, a love story emerges--one that's clearly not over yet.
