About this book

Summary

After ten years away, Leah returns to her lakeside hometown to settle her late mother's house. What begins as a duty soon draws her into old friendships, buried grief, and the rhythms of a community she once abandoned. Guided by an old lantern that carries her mother's quiet wisdom, Leah learns that healing does not mean forgetting but choosing to belong again. The Lantern by the Lake is a heartfelt story of homecoming, forgiveness, and the light that waits for all who wander but choose to return.
