The Lighthouse Keeps Their Secrets

A Shore Secrets Mystery

By: J.M. Kinley

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

The lighthouse was built to guide people home. But in Cape May, it helped hide what happened to the ones who never returned.

Clara Sullivan thought the letters in the Pink House would tell her the truth about Edward DeLuca’s disappearance.

She was wrong.

The deeper she digs, the more the story changes. Edward did not vanish because of a storm. A boat did not simply drift back empty. And the old lighthouse, long treated as a symbol of safety, may have helped turn a tragedy into a public lie.

When Clara and Evan DeLuca follow the next clue, they are led to Nora Walsh, winter keys, missing rooms, old harbor records, and a woman named Lucia whose silence may have protected more than grief.

At the center of it all is a child’s death the town called an accident—and a relief committee that may have used mercy to end questions before they could become accusations.

The respectable families of Cape May built their reputations on charity, restoration, and public memory.

But Clara is beginning to understand the truth:

Some secrets are not buried because people forget.

They are buried because powerful people keep choosing where everyone else is allowed to look.

The Lighthouse Keeps Their Secrets is the second book in the Shore Secrets series, a layered coastal suspense novel about hidden records, family loyalty, public lies, and the dangerous cost of asking what really happened.

Best read after The Summer of Hidden Letters.
