Danny and Life on Bluff Point: Lost in the Dark, is the third in a series of historical novels for children. This portion of the Danny adventures takes place in February of 1895 with winter fun and chores continuing. Pa and Uncle Henry race their spirited teams and sleighs along the Ridge Road. Danny is given his own small iceboat, which is to be shared with Cousin Jay.
Our hero fails to pay attention to what is happening around him and spends a cold windless night, alone on Keuka Lake ice. Danny chooses the wrong direction in the moonless night and walks further away from home. He decides to try to hide his iceboating mistakes from Ma and Pa.
Danny comes to understand falsehoods are of no help and taking responsibility for his actions is the best policy.
