SYNOPSIS: Agnus’s
plummet inside the lighthouse is the stuff of local lore and ghost stories. But
was the death her fault, driven by mental illness? Or, did the lighthouse
keeper play a part? The teacher? This historical literary fiction illumines
struggles meant to stay shrouded in a time when patience was a virtue, a
lighthouse saved lives, and an earthquake was the furthest notion in the minds
of Charlestonians.
