"As a child, Allen is saved from a nautical disaster by Benjamin Postlethwaite, a solitary lighthouse keeper. Years later, Allen returns to the lighthouse, and the two nurse an injured young puffin back to health. When Allen is called up to fight in World War Two...his fond memories of his time at the lighthouse keep him going, even through prison camp."-- Provided by publisher.
