The Shadow Man - Harper Carr

. .

Résumé :
Seventeen-year-old Gracelyn Lassiter has been hiding in her aunt's house for four years-since her mother plunged from the cliffs at Feroz Lighthouse, leaving her without her home, her best friend, or answers. Now, her father's burned to death in his sailboat and left a confession: Your mother didn't jump, I pushed her. The trauma triggers Gracelyn's ability to see spirits so real she can't tell who's human and who's a ghost-except for the gray-veiled Shadow Man who begs her to return to Feroz and find her mother's journal. When her cruel cousin posts his confession on social media, Feroz seems like a safe place to escape. And if Gracelyn can see ghosts, she can conjure her mother's spirit and hear the truth from her own lips. But her lighthouse haven is awash with spirits, secrets, and lies-and the closer Gracelyn gets to the truth, the more she realizes the dead aren't the only ones desperate to keep the past in the past. THE SHADOW MAN is a Young Adult novel by B.C. author, Harper Carr, inspired by her experiences working for the Coast Guard as a lighthouse keeper on the West Coast of Canada....
