The Lightkeeper's Daughter

Great Christian historical fiction murder mystery romance.  Spans many genres!  Mercy Falls Novels by Colleen Coble.  I enjoyed the first book in this series very much.  Will be ordering books 2 and 3 soon.  Highly recommend this author to tweens, young adults and ladies who love historical romance. Here's what Library Journal has to say about this first installment...

"Orphaned after her parents die in a shipwreck, two-year-old Addie Sullivan is raised by lighthouse keepers near Crescent City, CA. She grows up wondering about her past and the family she doesn't remember. Then an injured stranger shows up at the lighthouse and recognizes Addie's locket. Determined to uncover her past, she finds not only employment as a governess at the lavish Eaton estate in 1907 Mercy Falls but also danger and romance. VERDICT This historical is one of Coble's ("Rock Harbor" series, "Aloha Reef" series) better novels, full of intrigue. Those looking for a wholesome story with some suspense will enjoy the book's gothic feel" - Library Journal.

Fast read with lots of mystery...loved it!

Happy Reading!
