A father and son, long-estranged, fight to win a fishing competition together—and lose the pain that’s kept them apart.It’s 1976, and William McKay is at the top of his game. He’s taken over the family brokerage firm. He has a stunning and accomplished fiancée. The NYC Chamber of Commerce has named him the Under 40 Executive of the Year. And yet . . . William knows something is missing. Then he receives a phone call from his father, who disappeared eleven years earlier while William's mother was dying from Alzheimer’s. Leo's living in the Florida Keys now, and he wants William to join him in a father-son fishing competition. Stunned by this father’s audacity, suspicious of his motives, but even more desperate to leave New York, William agrees and heads south in his private jet. The basis for the forthcoming film Blood Knot starring Oscar-winner Michael Douglas and his own son Cameron Douglas, Looking Through Water chronicles the indelible impact that long-festering pain can have on a family, and the healing that comes with forgiveness—once we learn when to reel in a big catch and when to let it all go.
84-year-old Sylvia barely escapes death when a teenage driver plows down six children and a crossing guard, never looking back. Shaken, Sylvia draws his portrait, creating a connection with this 14-year-old boy that allows the police to locate and arrest him. That night, he appears to her through a supernatural process neither understands. Can one woman's belief in the power of love make a difference in the life of one boy who wants to change?
Veteran Texas musician, Luke Stone, has cheated death more times then he cares to remember. He's been everything from a simple farm boy to a rowdy roughneck, a singing star to a convict and finally a husband and father whose goals consisted of building a home and raising a family...which he did. Now, with a chance for a second music career, he knows the sand in his hourglass is running thin. His anchor in life and true love, Darlina, stands at his side determined to help make the dream a reality. But, his aging body is sabotaging every effort and the only thing that keeps him going is sheer will power and the love he has for Darlina. When faced with being confined to a wheelchair for the rest of his life, Luke draws on every resource to continue to function and contribute to their home and to society. This is a story of inspiration, endurance and most of all undying love. When Luke and Darlina face life-altering situations that would destroy a lesser man and woman, they draw on each other's strength and determination to face them. Will fate allow Luke to sing his last song?
