  Summary: In late seventeenth-century England, motherless eleven-year-old Digory Beale is forced to leave his hometown when his father is lost at sea. Digory becomes an apprentice to the architect Henry Winstanley, who has built a lighthouse on the treacherous Eddystone Reef — the very rocks that sank Digory’s grandfather’s ship years before.
