Eternity's Embrace

Frank Trask, a Maine lobsterman is approached by Alan and Marjorie, children of Vernon and Bernice Townsley, who seek their mother's grave. They claim she lived in a lighthouse, which is impossible. The siblings' memories present contradictions. The words of One-eyed Bennie merely confound. Bernice Jennings is the daughter of wealthy Bostonians. Vernon Townsley is a Kansas farmer who-unable to enter college-enlists in the Army and is wounded in France in WW1. The two meet at Togus Military Hospital, near Augusta. They fall in love and have a spat. Vernon searches for Bernie and finds her on Cross Island in Machias Bay. Eventually they marry, sire a family, and endure tragedy. Frank's research untangles the confusion and resolves the questions. Bernie's spirit guides the siblings to the grave, where their parents are left in Eternity's Embrace.
