A lighthouse keeper and his cat face a stormy night mystery with unexpected lights guiding a lost boat to safety.
In a lonely lighthouse, a keeper and his cat, Mackerel, face a stormy night when fierce winds extinguish their lantern. As a fishing boat signals distress in the dark sea, mysterious yellow lights suddenly appear, guiding the vessel to safety. What are these unexpected lights, and how did they come to be? Discover the secret behind this maritime mystery and the bond between a man and his feline companion.
In an old lighthouse, where a twenty-four-candle lantern lights a sparkling blue-green sea, dwell a solitary keeper and his little companion – a cat called Mackerel. Together the two climb up, up, up to watch over the nighttime sea and down, down, down to eat and play.On one stormy night, the quick rush of a fierce wind darkens every candle. Soon an errant fishing boat, lost in the raging black sea, signals distress. Sure enough, it is the sudden glow of twenty-four flashing yellow lights that guide the boat away from danger. Just what could those new lights be?
