From the publisher

In the title story, it’s a cold and lonely night at the lighthouse on remote Cape Quack when the storm of the century suddenly pounds and pummels the tiny outpost. Donald and the boys are trying to help light the light to warn off all the ships at sea, but a sneaky crook who wants to claim the land for himself has wrecked the controls. With every passing minute, the storm grows fiercer, the waves crash higher, and the ships draw nearer to the deadly reef. Then, Magica De Spell is back, this time with a Valentine’s Day threat to steal Uncle Scrooge’s No. 1 Dime. His only hope to save it lies with Donald and the boys – but can they even fend off Magica’s secret plan?And, Donald sets out on a new career as a “Master Wrecker,” demolishing old and outdated buildings. Hmm. Giving a crane and wrecking ball to Donald Duck. What could possibly go wrong?
