Having served under the author in the Marine Corps when he was the CO of VMA 542, I really enjoyed how he developed the story to include intrigue woven with the reality of being at Cherry Point. It brought back great memories including the flying and sailing around Cherry Point. Great storyline that kept me wanting to read the next page all the way to the end! Even a non pilot will appreciate the detail he used to describe and set up this thriller.

I found this book very hard to put down once I started reading it. It was very interesting and I found it easy to picture the locations where things were occuring since the author described things so well. I am currently reading the other book by David Corbett, “Abaco Gold, the Maravilla Conncection. Looking forward to his next book.

iUniverse boasts some talented authors. In 2004 it was Amy Fisher’s well-written book “…if I knew then.”
Then, in 2005, John Galloway turned out what may have been the best book of 2005 from any publishing house: “FINE DINING MADNESS.”
And now, in 2006 it’s “A Good Marine’s Murder” which will force you to call in sick for work just so you can finish it.
I’m well impressed with what I’m seeing from iUniverse, and I’m checking out their new releases every month.
