High Water At Tower Beach

Some secrets are broadcast loud and clear. Others, you have to listen for in the dark.

Chicago journalist Emma Burleigh has a return ticket, no newsroom to go back to, and three weeks to sell the salt-bitten Gulf Coast house her estranged great-aunt left her. She isn’t staying. She has never stayed anywhere.

But the dead radio station on the property won’t stay quiet. At 2:59 each morning, it broadcasts through cut power lines, old songs, old dedications, all in her Aunt June’s voice.

As if a phantom broadcast weren’t enough to complicate a quick sale, the station’s co-owner is a problem on a completely different frequency. Noah Teague is a rugged, quiet fisherman with careful hands, a family ruined by hers, and a secret he’s kept since they were children: he remembers the summer girl she used to be. Bound by a co-signed deed, neither of them can sell or walk away without the other.
