The Lighthouse Files

SUMMARY
_________________________________________________

When Maeve Hale arrives at Mariner's Point on a scholarship-focused on her architecture dreams and determined to keep her distance-she doesn't expect to be placed on a team with five completely different teens. A calm strategist, a bold risk-taker, an observant quiet type, a sharp-tongued realist, and one unpredictable wildcard whose sharp smiles and lingering glances throw her off balance more than she'd like to admit.
But under the guidance of their mentor-whose friendliness feels a little too practiced-their simple project pulls them straight into the center of a mystery the town has spent years trying to erase. Archived files vanish without explanation. Clues shift locations overnight. And the lighthouse on the cliffs seems to shine just a second too long, as if tracking their movements.
Now this unlikely group has to rely on one another-balancing rivalry, fragile trust, and the slow-burning tension Maeve never meant to feel-as someone grows desperate to keep their secrets buried.

Because at Mariner's Point, the past doesn't fade.
It waits for you to follow it.
