Light the Way Home
Nancy L. M. Russell
Christine Miller thinks she has it all living in Toronto:
friends, status and freedom.  Unexpectedly, her father loses
his job and Christine is forced to relocate with her family to
Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island.  

Bored with small town life, the sophisticated teen spends a
lot of time scheming about how she can return to her "real"
life in Toronto.  That changes when she becomes involved in
a project to save an old lighthouse.  However, when
Christine's Toronto friends come calling, she's forced to
make some tough decisions.

Author Nancy L. M. Russell skilfully blends the everyday
teen concerns, romance, historic information, good yarns and
an original and realistic adventure in this young adult story.

"Christine took a deep breath as her family's Jeep started up the ramp to the Confederation Bridge, crossing
from the mainland on to Prince Edward Island.  She was about to leave her old life behind and start a new one.  As
they arrived on the small Island province, Christine scanned the rolling farm fields."

"Gazing out over the water again, Christine noticed a light in the distance she hadn't seen before.  She squinted
and looked again.  There, on the tip of land just before the harbour opened up into the Northumberland Strait, was
a red and white lighthouse.  Christine stared in fascination as pulses of bright, white light danced across the waves
of the harbour.  The powerful beacon was like a messenger from far away, telling her, gently, soothingly, that
everything would work out."
