the Lighthouse at Edge of World

Mara was born with the sound of the sea in her ears-and the weight of a destiny she never chose.Raised in the shadow of the lighthouse on the remote island of Skellig Mor, Mara has spent her whole life listening to the pull of the water her mother has always warned her about. Her mother, Anya, is the keeper of the light. Her father, Ronan, is the man who came to the island as a stranger and stayed for love. And Mara is something more than either of them-a child of both land and sea, carrying a legacy older than she understands.When a stranger named Kofi arrives searching for answers about his grandmother and the legends of Skellig Mor, Mara is pulled into a truth her family has guarded for generations: a pact made with the sea, a prophecy written in a dead man's journal, and a darkness beneath the island that has been waiting for her all along.To save the people she loves, Mara must descend into the abyss the sea has hidden for centuries-and decide whether she will become the next keeper of an old, aching bond, or the one who finally breaks it.A companion novel to The Salt and the Sea, The Lighthouse at the Edge of the World is a story about inheritance and choice, about the loves that shape us and the ones we choose for ourselves, and about a sea that never quite lets go of what it's owed.Welcome back to Skellig Mor.
