Dominating the raw beauty of the island is the majestic Killa-keet Lighthouse, for generations the responsibility of one family, the Thurlows. But Josh Thurlow, the keeper's son, has forsworn his herit-age to become the commander of a small Coast Guard patrol boat. Tortured by twenty years of guilt for losing his brother at sea, Josh still searches for him even while a looming wolf-pack of German U-boats threatens to soak the island's shore with blood. One of the U-boats is captained by Otto Krebs, a famed warrior with a hundred sunken ships to his name. But Krebs comes to Killakeet with more than a feverish desire to win the war. He may also have the answer to the mystery that haunts Josh Thurlow. The Keeper's Son is a rousing, bittersweet tale of the power of the human heart forever searching for redemption."--Publisher.
