Night Lights: Golf, the Blues, and the Brown Mountain Light

What do golf, the blues and the Brown Mountain Light â€" one of America’s oldest unsolved mysteries â€" have in common? Teenage golfer Val Galloway, budding bluesman Bo Gaines, and science major Alan Delacruz join fources to find the answers to that and other questions in this coming-of-age tale. Part golf novel and part popular culture guidebook and western North Carolina travelogue, Night Lights is the humorous and endearing story of three kindred spirits from the South Brunswick Islands who search for the source of the elusive Brown Mountain Light during the summer of 2003 in the North Carolina High Country around Linville and Grandfather Mountain. Their search for the Light and what they ultimately find reveal much about our own fears and doubts in post-9/11 American but even more about undying hope and the resilience of the human spirit.
