About This Book

A lively circle of young motorists and their friends travel to adjacent coastal bungalows for an outing, where they discover a mysterious waif washed ashore. The vacation shifts from social pleasure to peril as lighthouse secrets, a violent storm, and a vessel wreck prompt a daring rescue and salvage efforts. The group alternates between suspicion and solidarity while investigating the stranger’s background; the narrative reveals the woman’s story, tests friendships, and resolves tensions through resourcefulness and reunion, ending with restored safety and renewed harmony among the companions.
