The Light in Whale Cove — Kristine Kathryn Rusch

Sheriff Dan Retsler finally believes in magic. He has to, after all he's experienced in Whale Rock. But he can't take it any longer, so he's moving away from the magical town. His successor has arrived just as the ghosts return to the lighthouse. Now he must train a newcomer in the dark side of Whale Rock, while making sure the terror entombed in the lighthouse won't move into the town itself.

Like early Ray Bradbury, Rusch has the ability to switch on a universal dark.
-- the Times of London

[Rusch's horror stories are] horror in the same way that Robert Bloch's Psycho is -- horror of the soul.
-- Locus
