I wonder what it means. I met this paragraph in a book. [Walking softly, I went around the cottage to the grassy terrace from which we had watched the celebration at midnight. The big fire that had leaped from the beach below had burned down to a red core, and off on the Swedish coast opposite, north and south of the overtaken lights of Hälsingborg, other coals glowed dully.] I wonder what 'the overtaken lights' means. This expression is strange to me. If anyone knows what it means, please help. Thank you in advance
