One On One: Quirky Characters Save The Hatteras Lighthouse
Do you remember back in 1999 when the Hatteras Lighthouse was moved about 1,000 yards to escape the rising ocean?
A happy outcome was not a certainty at the beginning. Some people were sure the lighthouse was certain to collapse during the move.
Would you believe that a young girl from the Outer Banks brought together her friends to cast a spell to keep the lighthouse from falling down during the move?
It happens fictionally in a story told by the central character of the Lee Smith Award-winning debut novel by Raleigh author Heather Frese, “The Baddest Girl on the Planet.”
