About the Book
The lighthouse keepers of a disappearing coast refuse the order to abandon their posts. As the sea takes the road, then the village, then the ground beneath them, they keep the lamps lit for ships that may no longer be coming.
What Makes It Special
Elemental Power
The sea is the best-drawn character here.
Rising Stakes
The ground literally shrinks beneath them.
Hard-Won Bonds
Camaraderie forged in genuinely bad weather.
Muscular Prose
Spare, salt-worn, and quietly moving.

Sam Arlen writes weather better than most writers write people — and then writes people who are worth the weather. Bracing, sad, and quietly heroic.
