This was an okay book, there were a lot of things I liked, I enjoyed the descriptions of the marsh, the way science and ecology was included and the first part as well as the ending was great! I did however find the story dragging in the second part, especially the court scenes. I get why it was necessary but it didn’t need to be that long in my opinion and was a let down for the whole book. Overall an average book.
