This was a pretty good book that was somewhat weakened by, what I shall call, plot implausibilities. There were a few times the characters acted in ways that were unbelievable but the action was needed to drive the plot forward. So, I guess I understood why the characters acted in certain ways, only I didn't believe they really would have acted in those ways based upon their personality traits and as I had come to understand them. So yeah.

Interesting idea, living in a lighthouse. I would have been happy with a straightforward story about that, never mind all the melodrama.
