After graduating from Florida State University, she joined the world of espionage and worked for the National Security Agency until moving to Los Angeles. There she earned a master’s in linguistics, taught writing and literature, and began her mystery writing career. After publishing several short stories in literary magazines, Glynn began her Luanne Fogarty North Florida series with Dive Deep and Deadly, which received a nomination for the Barry Award for best first novel. In 2010, Glynn published her ninth book. One book in the series has attracted the attention of Hollywood (Cold Water Corpse), and her seventh in the series, Moon Water Madness, won the gold medal in the Florida Book Awards for popular fiction. Her latest book, Tide Water Talisman, came out in September 2010. She has also published a literary novel, River Whispers. “All of my books take place around North Florida swampland, the most mysterious place I know. It has become the basis of my stories and the suspense in them.” Visit Glynn’s website: www.glynnmarshalam.com.
