"Once again, following her first book about the tough woman detective Cory Marin, Romancing the Crime, JW Robitaille has produced a gripping, twisting, anxiety provoking rip roarer of a plot. Rednecks and drug dealers, crooked cops and arrogant rich kids vs. a dogged detective and her partner. I could not put it down." Amazon Reviewer

"Marshland is fantastic sequel to Romancing the Crime. Cory Marin returns as the strong female lead detective whose instinct and tenacity make the novel a page-turner. The novel contains all new mysteries, twists and turns but with the same likable cast of characters and dialogue. This is shaping up to be a great female detective series." Amazon Reviewer

"Great character development that makes you feel like you know each of them. Intrigue and suspense abound and twists and turns keep you turning the pages. Wonderful book- fun read!! Love it!!" Amazon Reviewer

Sergeant Cory Marin and Detective Washington investigate the overdose death of a college student and find that everyone involved is lying or has something to hide. The more questions they ask, the more they suspect something very bad has happened. When the corpse of a young man is found in a swamp, their suspicions are confirmed. Their investigation leads them to the creeks and marshes of the Gulf coast, a land of small towns, fishermen, and smugglers, and they discover a subculture of drug importers, dealers, and users, a world dominated by greed.
