The Locals

By: McRae, B. A.

A sleepy town in Iowa is nestled in the crook of a state park that bears the secret of a magical lighthouse-only appearing to certain people and carrying secrets far more profound than Folk Fosters'.When Folk herself is dragged out of her depression comfort zone- and away from the best friend she has yet to admit she's in love with- to a mere population of 700 locals, one of them being her estranged Aunt, she is even more conflicted in her inner turmoil. Upon discovering a lighthouse woven into the town's hushed tall tales, Folk encounters an intangible entity that creates the whimsical oasis she's been yearning for. But what can the intentions of an enchanting lighthouse and its keeper be? Do you leap for love without a net? At the forefront of unmasking family secrets and reaching beyond your limitations, do you learn to trust yourself or evaporate into dust?
