Sea Snow: the gentle haunting of a 19th century lighthouse

On her wedding night, Rose Martin, the young bride of a 19th century lighthouse keeper is awakened by a phantom fragrance, compelling her to leave her sleeping husband's side and climb the 102 steps of the light tower. What she encounters there startles her, but is just the beginning of the unnerving experiences that guide her through the unlocking of a secret that haunts not only the lighthouse, but many of the nearby villagers, as well. In SEA SNOW, we open Rose's journal and read the words of a southern woman transported by love and distance to a rocky island lighthouse, one mile off the Massachusetts coast. There, we discover the details of daily life at the turn of the 20th century: the challenges, the joys, and, in Rose's case, the love and supernatural forces that part the veil between the living and the dead.
