A Christmas story for Caroline

Here is how a story called "Caroline and the Lighthouse's Lament" might begin:

The lighthouse beam swept across the frozen sea, a rhythmic pulse against the inky blackness of Christmas Eve. Caroline, bundled in her warmest sweater, listened to the mournful cry of a distant foghorn. Tonight, the usual lonely vigil felt different; a strange unease prickled the air. Down in the lantern room, where the great lamp cast its powerful light, Caroline noticed something peculiar. The intricate brass gears that turned the light, usually smooth and silent, were now emitting a soft, almost imperceptible groan, a grinding protest that sent shivers down her spine. One of the mighty lenses was starting to fog.

What happens next? Caroline investigates the peculiar groan in the lighthouse, discovering a problem that threatens to plunge the icy coastline into darkness on Christmas Eve.
