“Readers will be swept away in this raw and beautifully told
story about grief, forgiveness, and what binds us—love.”
— Jo Knowles, author of
Jumping Off Swings
Willa Dixon’s life is planned out: after high school graduation, she’ll spend
the rest of her days fishing for lobster in the mercurial Atlantic waters. After
all, she’s a lobsterman’s daughter in Broken Tooth, Maine—fishing has been
the family business for centuries, and she’s looking forward to being the next
generation of Dixons on the sea.
But Willa’s plans are shattered one foggy night. When her brother dies on
the family lobster boat, her father forbids Willa from setting foot on the deck
again. With her family suffering, she’ll do anything to help out—even visit the
Grey Man.
Everyone in Broken Tooth knows of this legendary spirit who haunts the
lighthouse, controlling the fog and the fate of any vessel within his reach. But
what Willa finds in the lighthouse isn’t a spirit at all, but a young man trapped
inside until he collects one thousand souls. Desperate to escape his cursed
existence, Grey tries to seduce Willa to take his place.
With her life on land in shambles and her future uncertain, will she
succumb?
