The Drowned Truth (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781956069617)

Galveston, 1900. Beatrice Whitmore knows her husband's secrets: his gambling debts, his mistress, his lies. When she threatens to expose him, he silences her forever. Hours later, the deadliest hurricane in American history erases all evidence of his crime.

Galveston, present day. Doctoral student Julia Lynn moves into the historic Whitmore house, expecting to research the Great Storm. Instead, she encounters a ghost desperate to be heard, a woman with bruises on her throat and a story that refuses to stay buried.

As Julia uncovers the truth hidden in the walls, she realizes some secrets survive even the worst disasters. And some women refuse to be silenced, even by death.

The storm buried his crime. It couldn't bury her truth.
