With a hurricane menacing in the gulf, reporter Kate Bennett and Detective Peter Johnson find themselves caught in a life-or-death struggle against an escaped prisoner hell-bent on revenge. Tommy Gage murdered his parents on Kate's first day at the Galveston Gazette. Her reporting on the crime thwarted the teen's escape, giving Peter a chance to arrest him. When he breaks out of jail on the eve of his trial, they're convinced he has bigger plans than making a clean getaway. Kate is determined to stay and cover the storm, no matter the risk. But as the hurricane looms and Gage circles ever closer, Kate's biggest battle rages in her own heart. After a year of keeping Peter at arm's length, she knows it's time to tear down the wall she's kept between them. But she's never taken a leap of faith, and this one feels more like jumping off a cliff. Peter's only goal is to keep Kate safe, even if he has to sacrifice everything to do it. As the island trembles in anticipation of the hurricane's wrath, Kate and Peter must confront their deepest fears and the darkness that surrounds them. Washed By The Water is a gritty tale of heart-pounding Christian suspense that dives into the struggle between wavering faith and the enduring hope that lies in surrender.

Autorenporträt
Leigh Jones started her writing career in elementary school with a story about an enterprising hamster making a bid to take over the world. But after college, she set all dreams of fiction writing aside to chase the daily adrenaline rush of seeing her byline in print. She covered school board meetings, city council intrigue, and the occasional heart-warming feature for several daily newspapers in Texas. She even covered a few murders and one very big hurricane.She never considered returning to fiction until she became an editor and no longer got to see her byline on the front page. Facing serious adrenaline withdrawals, she began plotting her first novel. Eight years later, it finally hit the virtual store shelves as Look The Other Way, book one in the Galveston Crime Scene series. Adverse Events, the second book in the series, came out a year later.When she's not writing fiction, Leigh works as the executive features editor at WORLD News Group, a national Christian media outlet that practices biblically objective journalism. There she shepherds long-form story projects for print and podcast.She lives with her husband and daughter near Houston.
