Gina Higgins has come to the Outer Banks of North
Carolina -- a stranger with a secret. But secrets are a
fact of life for some of the residents of the close-knit
community of Kiss River. Gina is about to learn that those
secrets are tied to her own in ways she never could have
imagined. Kiss River's historic lighthouse has all but
fallen into the sea, taking with it the huge Fresnel lens
that once served as its beacon. Gina is desperate to find
a way to raise the lens from the sea. The glass holds the
key to her future, her fortune and her only chance to save
the one person who matters to her: a child who waits for
her halfway around the world. Lacey O'Neill, a talented
stained-glass artist with a troubled past, lives in the
old lightkeeper's house, a home she shares with her
brother, Clay, who is grieving the tragic death of his
wife. When Lacey meets Gina, she invites her to stay with
them, secretly hoping the young woman will help pull Clay
from his depression. Eagerly accepting the offer, Gina
moves into the lightkeeper's house and begins her quest to
raise the lens. As Gina's story unfolds, so does the
decades-old story of a courageous teenage girl swept away
by love and plunged into the treacherous waters of
espionage during World War II. The shocking legacy she
left buried in the light reveals much more than Gina
expected. And with it comes new hope for the future... and
for love.
