The Girl on the East Beach: A Jay Delp Mystery Book 2 (Audiobook)

In Ocean Springs, Mississippi, the water gives up its secrets on its own schedule.

It's a perfect night on the Mississippi Sound — calm, warm, stars reflected in the shallows off East Beach — until a flounder fisherman's light falls on something that has no business being in the water.

A girl. Young. Unknown. Gone.

Jay Delp, two months into his complicated homecoming as Ocean Springs Chief of Police, catches the case with a skeleton crew and more questions than leads. The girl isn't local. She isn't in any database anyone's checked. And the longer Jay traces her path to the Gulf Coast, the clearer it becomes that she didn't just wander here — she was brought.

Beneath the salt air and Spanish moss of Ocean Springs, something ugly has taken root. And while Jay races to find justice for the girl on the East Beach, the past is reaching back for him, too — one powerful name at a time.

The Girl on the East Beach is the second Jay Delp Mystery — a propulsive Southern crime novel rooted in the atmosphere, community, and quiet menace of Mississippi's Gulf Coast. Narrated by Brandon J. Peterson
