Two young girls and their father move next to an abandoned lighthouse, where the girls meet a strange new friend and work together to try to solve the mysteries of Wreckers Cove.

Eisner award-winning cartoonist Liniers and writer Angelica del Campo recreate the world of 19th-century lighthouse keepers in a delightful supernatural tale about ghosts and shipwrecks, inspired by the real-life story of a heroic young woman who tended an isolated Maine lighthouse many years ago.

Two young sisters, Cristina and Martha, along with their dad, move to a summer home in a small coastal town located near an old non-working lighthouse. As the sisters explore the beach and the lighthouse, they encounter a friendly, albeit unusual, red-haired girl, who turns out to be a ghostly local legend with a heartbreaking story shrouded in mystery.

The Ghost of Wreckers Cove is a captivating blend of history and imagination, offering young readers an engaging tale filled with adventure and the echoes of a bygone era.
