The Lightkeepers: A Mystery Thriller

By Jack Scott

Some doors should never be opened...

When a local boy vanishes without a trace, the quiet town of Sterling turns its eyes to the long-abandoned Carmichael House-a brooding Victorian where whispers claim the cellar door never stays shut. Drawn by courage, loyalty, and a promise they refuse to break, a tight-knit group of friends begin to follow the clues no one else will.

By day they map old records at the Night Owl caf . By night they cross creaking floors and breathe the dust of forgotten rooms, learning the hard way that light reveals-and it also attracts. What waits inside the Carmichael House is older than legend, patient as darkness, and hungry for those who dare to name it. To bring the missing home, the friends must become what Sterling needs most: lightkeepers-and keep the lantern burning when the house fights back.

THE LIGHTKEEPERS is a gripping, atmospheric mystery thriller that blends small-town secrets with classic ghost-story chills. Perfect for readers who love found-family heroes, midnight stakes, and the knot-tightening suspense of creeping down one more staircase because the truth is calling from below.
