Covering a windsurfing competition should have been a
breeze for reporter Meg Reed, but with a killer in the curl, she’s headed for
rough waters…

Hood River in the Columbia River Gorge is the windsurfing
capital of the world, and Meg is stoked to cover the King of the Hook event for
Portland’s Northwest Extreme magazine.

Before the competition gets under way, Meg has a chance
to try some windsurfing on her own. But when the current sweeps her downriver,
she spots a body snagged on the rocks. The dead man is Justin Cruise, aka
Cruise Control, a celebrity windsurfer and not exactly a nice guy. It’s soon
clear his death was no accident, and Cruise had no shortage of enemies. As Meg
dives right in to discover who wiped out the windsurfer, she’ll need to keep
her balance–or she too may get blown away.

This book is available on Amazon and Barnes & Noble.
