Richie Tankersley Cusick - Author
A sunny island setting frames a mystery involving a missing girl, a threatening lighthouse encounter and suspicious drownings. Kelsey’s apparent protectors may not be trustworthy, making danger and uncertainty central to the story.
Kelsey's summer should have been paradise: An invitation to rich and famous Beverly Island, complete with sun-drenched beaches and three gorgeous lifeguards on duty. But Kelsy's summer is the opposite of paradise. It starts with the note under her pillow from a girl who's missing. Then there's the crazy man in the lighthouse who won't leave Kelsey alone. And there have been a number of suspicious drownings ... At least she has the lifeguards around to protect her ... Poor Kelsey. Someone forgot to tell her that lifeguards don't always like to save lives. Ages 12-up. Copyright 1988 Reed Business Information, Inc.

Expect a tense atmosphere rather than an uncomplicated holiday story. Before reading, consider whether your reader is comfortable with missing-person imagery, suspicious deaths and protectors whose intentions may be uncertain.
This is a grounded book brief while Suitabook strengthens the analysis: the current material supports only a cautious reading; another book-specific source is still needed.
