Strong and Beautiful - Jana McCown


It was wonderful to see Jana McCown outside the somber setting of a criminal courtroom and present her with a copy of "Walking Between The Raindrops." The former First Assistant District Attorney for Williamson County graciously wrote the forward to the book. Over the years since the last sentencing hearing, she has become a dear friend and was an early supporter of our writing the book.

Readers will not only get a glimpse of Jana's amazing talent as a prosecutor in "Walking Between The Raindrops," but will see, as we saw, Jana bravely sitting in the courtroom for hours with the same sharp, plastic zip-cuff taken from around Paul's hands binding her hands tightly and uncomfortably behind her and the same red bandanna blindfold that was found on Paul wrapped around her head, covering her eyes to represent to the jury, and everyone else in the courtroom, a glimpse of what it was like for Paul during his captivity. This powerful visual will stay with me forever. No Hollywood courtroom drama could have been as compelling.

"Walking Between The Raindrops" is available in print and Kindle editions at Amazon.com.
