The Lantern Keepers

On the rugged coast of Greyharbor, the fog rolls in thick and alive. Locals whisper about the old lighthouse, abandoned for decades, and the lanterns that sometimes flicker across the water when no ships are near.

When seventeen-year-old Kai arrives in town, he doesn't expect to care about old sailor tales. But the night he hears his name whispered from the mist, everything changes. Together with Ezra, the guarded boy who knows more than he says, and Marina, whose family has watched the sea for generations, Kai is drawn into a mystery that blurs the line between life and death.

The deeper they search, the more they uncover about the Lantern Keepers... watchers of the sea bound by an ancient oath. Something in the fog is calling to Kai. And if he answers, it might claim more than just his soul.

A haunting blend of mystery, supernatural suspense, and coastal folklore, The Lantern Keepers is a story of secrets, loyalty, and the light we cling to when darkness closes in.
