When Wayfarer Point Lighthouse goes dark, several near-misses with oil tankers lead to fear that an environmental emergency is just around the bend. But why is the faithful lighthouse going dim at suspicious times? The investigation uncovers a host of suspects and a long-burried secret. Meanwhile, Abby is busy with an ambitious eagle-spotting project for the conservatory, and a blind birder sets out to help Sandy McDonald's uncle, who has recently lost his eyesight. Can Abby help everyone to see that there is one true light that guides them all? Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |

I liked that Bobby is learning ham radio operation from his uncle. I guess he is rather motivated to learn because he gets to take the test rather quickly and passes on his first try. (A bit convenient that the test is given so soon after the topic comes up, but the rest of the book was so good, I could overlook that.). It was nice to see the outcome of that.
Robert (the uncle) was blinded as an adult by an act of ecoterrorism. He's still angry about it (and I gathered that others with him did not survive what happened, so some of his anger may be understandable). At first he's feeling useless and not self-sufficient because of his disability, but a blind lady who still goes out bird-watching as well as Mary (who has a different disability) help him to see that it only means he's differently abled. Bobby also helps Robert to understand the need to forgive.
I liked the interaction between Pamela, Mary, Abby and Robert.
I didn't really have much that I disliked from this story. ( )
