Description

During a blackout in London, 12-year-old Olive Bradshaw and her brother Cliff are evacuated to the Devon coast. They take up residence with Mr Ephraim, the local lighthouse keeper, who is not used to company. Olive becomes his post-girl, carrying secret messages to the villagers. However, she has a secret of her own: her older sister Sukie went missing in an air raid, and she's desperate to discover what happened to her.

When Olive finds a coded note that seems to link Sukie to Devon, she becomes determined to uncover the truth. As she navigates the challenges of her new life, Olive must also confront the dangers of the war-torn world around her.

A gripping story of family, secrets, and survival, Letters from the Lighthouse is a powerful and moving tale of one girl's quest for truth and justice.
