When Claire Whitaker inherits a weathered summer cottage on the coast of Maine, it seems like a great opportunity for their family to escape the pressures of everyday life and create new and lasting summer memories they can share for a lifetime. Still, from the moment they arrive in Five Islands, something feels wrong. Footsteps are echoing through empty rooms. Then, saltwater appears where it shouldn't, and strange lanterns drift across the fog-shrouded harbor at night. All the while, beneath the cottage, something ancient waits in the dark.

As the unexplained events unfold and intensify, the Whitakers become embroiled in a centuries-old mystery tied to a long-lost ship, a dead sea captain, and a tragedy the ocean refuses to forget. Together with the help of a reclusive local medium and a fisherman, who themselves are haunted by old legends, the Whitakers must unravel the truth behind the ghost of Captain Elias Vane before a force long hidden beneath the Five Islands breaks free.

Rich with maritime folklore, atmospheric suspense, and supernatural mystery, The Lanterns of Five Islands is a haunting tale of memory, loss, and the secrets buried beneath the sea. Perfect for readers who enjoy eerie coastal settings, ghostly encounters, and slow-burning supernatural suspense, this first installment of The Drowned Coast Series opens the door to a larger mystery stretching across Maine's fogbound islands and beyond.
