Book Six in The Thistlewhip Mysteries
by R.M. Jenkins
The lantern may dim, but its warmth never fades...
In the quiet village of Thistlewhip Hollow, Miss Pepp has long been the keeper of comfort, mystery, and memory. But when she disappears without a trace—leaving only a letter and a lantern—young Wren Lys is drawn into a mystery that runs deeper than the Hollow’s oldest roots.
Guided by forgotten journals, whispered names, and a light that seems to remember her, Wren begins to uncover a legacy hidden for generations. As she steps into the role of Lightkeeper, she learns that remembrance is a form of magic—and that the past doesn’t rest until it’s spoken aloud.
With the Hollow stirring, shadows rising, and a map leading beyond the village borders, Wren must decide what to carry forward—and what to let go.
Heartfelt, poetic, and filled with quiet wonder, The Last Light of Thistlewhip Hollow is a tender farewell to a beloved heroine… and a gentle beginning to what comes next.
