Leigh Jones

Leigh Jones fell in love with Galveston while working as a reporter for The Galveston County Daily News. She’s a Hurricane Ike survivor and co-authored a book about the island’s recovery, Infinite Monster: Courage, Hope, and Resurrection in the Face of One of America’s Largest Hurricanes.\n\nAdventures took her out of Texas for a few years, but the island was never far from her heart. She started reading accounts of historic crime while researching ideas for a forthcoming mystery novel set in Galveston.\n\nWhen she finally returned to Texas, she settled in the Houston area with her husband and daughter. They visit Galveston often.\n
