Camille Hollander is struggling to keep her family fed and safe during the last years of the Civil War. She and the other Gulf Coast villagers learn to live with Union-occupied cities on their east and west, and a prisoner of war camp on an island just twelve miles south of the coast. When her brother is captured, however, Camille faces the biggest struggle of all. Meeting Major Jake Warren, the Union commander of the island camp, makes her realize that her Northern foes aren’t always the villains they’re supposed to be. Family members and lifelong friends can cause just as much pain and anguish when they refuse to see beyond a blue uniform. Camille must face a world that has turned its back on her. Can she leave the only home she’s ever known to be with the man she loves?

Fran McNabb grew up along the beaches and islands of the Mississippi Gulf Coast. On the Crest of a Wave takes place on Ship Island, a locale which became an important part of her life. The island fort, which housed Confederate POWs during the Civil War, once was her playground and even a place of refuge during a storm. Now tourists flock to Mississippi to visit this structure. Fran received both her B.S. and her M.E. in English from the University of Southern Mississippi. She taught English and journalism and now enjoys presenting writing workshops. On the Crest of a Wave is Ms. McNabb’s third book. A Light in the Dark and Once in a Half Moon are also available.
