In the spring of 1909, four dozen intrepid individuals endeavored to construct a lighthouse atop a 130 foot escarpment over the frigid waters of Lake Superior. There were no roads or towns nearby. In Refuge From the Sea, Abby Simon, heroine of the Black Otter Bay series, discovers a journal written more than 100 years ago by one of the men building Split Rock Lighthouse. Entranced by the courage and commitment of this fellowship of strangers struggling against the wilderness, Abby engages the townsfolk to help uncover hidden clues to this historic undertaking. But when the journal comes to a sudden stop with the writer falling into the icy depths of Lake Superior, Abby is more determined than ever to uncover his fate. Refuge From the Sea is a mystery without a murder, a love story, and a tall tale of heroic determination, all set to the backdrop of the temperamental Lake Superior.
