Death at the Lighthouse

In 1972, Loren Graham and his wife purchased the Old North Lighthouse on Grand Island near Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore. The lighthouse was built in 1867 and stands on a 200 foot rock cliff on the northwest side of the island in Lake Superior. Inside the cracked and crumbling yellow brick walls of the lighthouse, under the oil cloth on the kitchen table, Graham discovered a yellowing newspaper clipping from the Detroit Free Press from June 15, 1908. It read: Grand Island Lighthouse keeper and his assistant believed to be victims of brutal murder and robbery. What happened to the 1908 lighthouse keeper and his assistant? Graham set out to answer this question. Death at the Lighthouse is the summary of Graham's thirty years of research which includes an analysis of all the various factions of the Upper Peninsula of Michigan.
