On the rocky coast of Maine, a lighthouse is meant to guide ships safely home. Instead, it reveals a mystery no one wants uncovered. Sixteen-year-old Piper has always paid attention-to tides, to silence, to the small details others overlook. When strange changes begin to surface around the lighthouse overlooking her town, Piper senses that something long buried is stirring again. The closer she looks, the clearer it becomes that the answers she's searching for are tied to the past-and to people who would rather keep it hidden. As whispers of old journals, unexplained signals, and unfamiliar visitors from away begin to circulate, Piper finds herself pulled into a quiet investigation that tests her instincts and her courage. Each discovery brings more questions, and every step forward carries the risk of exposing truths that could change her town forever. Set against a haunting coastal landscape of fog, stone, and sea, The Still Point is a young adult mystery about observation, responsibility, and the power of listening when the world urges silence. With an atmospheric tone and a steady sense of suspense, the novel invites readers into a story where what remains still may be the most dangerous thing of all.
