The year is 1919 and terrible storms are battering the New Jersey coastline. They threaten to swallow the Barnegat Lighthouse whole. The keeper, Henry Jones, an old stubborn army veteran, is all that stands between the lighthouse and doom.
It is a quiet existence for Henry until Thomas Dent appears. He is an escaped convict and a mystery to the keeper. But there is something about the lighthouse that draws Thomas in. He seeks a second chance at becoming a better man. The keeper uncharacteristically takes on the lost soul as his assistant. The two men separated by decades of life slowly find a common ground as the keeper teaches Thomas about life.
Pasts are never too far behind and Thomas's catches up with him. The evils of yesterday pose a threat to Thomas and the new life he has worked so hard to build. The keeper too battles demons of long ago and the men stand side by side as they battle dangerous storms and their pasts.
On one dark night, during a hellish ice storm, the world seems as though it may end for everyone in an epic conclusion to this dramatic tale.
Keeper of the Tower is an extraordinary tale of love, suspense, thrilling action, intense drama and the unbreakable bond two strangers can create.
