Description:
The first in a new series, Snook Wallow: A Wrongful Conviction Mystery weaves together the stories of two illegal immigrants and the men convicted of killing them.
After ten years on death row for murdering a Jane Doe, Logan Murphy is nearing the end of the line. Logan’s last hope rests with Cate Stokes, a retired lawyer who reluctantly agrees to take his case. Cate’s relentless pursuit of the truth leads her to the discovery of a human trafficking ring in South Florida and the chilling realization that Jane Doe was not their only victim.

“With plenty of twists, turns, and surprises—and a sly smile—Snook Wallow introduces a savvy new detective, and a great cast of characters. Put this on your beach reading list.” – Michael Sears, author of the award-winning Jason Stafford series
“Janet Heijens’ gripping novel introduces a relentless—take-no-prisoners—new protagonist onto the crime scene on Florida’s west coast. Cate Stokes tackles the terrifying elements of illegal immigration as she fights to save a convict on death row. Snook Wallow is the first of a series that promises more ‘wrongful conviction’ cases and I can’t wait for the next one.” – Patricia Gussin, New York Times Best-selling Author of After the Fall.
“Snook Wallow is a fast-paced thriller with fun, complex characters and a plot that will keep you guessing. I couldn't put it down.” - Lisa Black, NYT Bestselling author of That Darkness
“Janet Heijens has created a page turner filled with interesting characters, a sense of what it's like to live along the Gulf Coast of Florida, and plot twists to keep the reader guessing. Don't miss this one. Snook Wallow is a keeper.” – Maris Soule, Author of the P.J. Benson Mystery series.
“There are some bad actors in South Florida and Janet Heijens captures them very well. Drug dealers, human traffickers and murderers populate her book Snook Wallow and lawyer Cate Stokes has to deal with them all in order to save someone from a certain death. An insightful look into the dark side of the Sunshine State, Heijens knows the territory!” – Don Bruns, USA Today Best-selling Author of three highly praised series.
