About this listen
Newly appointed Ocean Springs Police Chief Jay Delp is trying to rebuild a shattered department and reconnect with his family on the quiet Mississippi Gulf Coast—until the body of a teenage girl turns up on the beach and the town’s calm façade cracks. What first looks like an overdose quickly becomes a missing baby mystery, and when Jay discovers the girl had an infant daughter, he’s forced into a relentless investigation that points to exploitation, secrets, and people determined to keep the truth buried.
As Jay follows the trail through motels, back roads, and the underbelly of coastal Mississippi, the case shifts from tragedy to something far more sinister—putting his badge, his career, and the lives of the vulnerable at risk. The Girl on the East Beach is a gripping Southern crime thriller and police procedural packed with small-town secrets, Gulf Coast atmosphere, and high-stakes suspense—perfect for fans of Michael Connelly, John Sandford, Lisa Gardner, and gritty detective mysteries.
