The Lighthouse Islands Series - Book 1 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798348551889)

In this contemporary, coming-of-age story, seven high school students with diverse backgrounds and social statuses live on five islands in Lake Superior protected by the Island Beacons. The seven face challenges with their varied histories, parents, families, hopes, dreams, goals, and choices while persevering to survive high school and get on with their lives. They, however, find themselves caught in the crosshairs of the self-proclaimed Island queen, her conspirators - the Island Xicons, and their earthly pawns. The queen's deepest desire and intense goal is to remove the riffraff from her islands so they can be renovated into the high-class set of sovereign country club islands they were intended to be. Each time her efforts are thwarted, her determination to improve and purify the islands is intensified, and the Xicons' powers are reinforced. However, to successfully rid the Islands of the lower classes, they must first annihilate the Island Beacons and destroy the seven.
