Photographs from Pauline Rowson's talk to Hamble Valley U3A on murder, mystery and mayhem



Over a hundred people turned out on a hot summer afternoon on 9 July to listen to me talking about murder, mystery and mayhem.

A packed audience at Hamble Vallery U3A

I was honoured and delighted to entertain Hamble Valley U3A with a talk about crime writing and my crime novels.

The audience were very friendly and it was good to meet some DI AndyHorton fans and introduce my crime novels to some new readers.

U3As are self-help, self-managed lifelong learning co-operatives for older people no longer in full time work, providing opportunities for their members to share learning experiences in a wide range of interest groups and to pursue learning not for qualifications, but for fun.

Hamble Valley U3A "The comments on your talk were excellent. Fascinating, inspiring and one of the best speakers for ages. Thank you."  

I've given many talks to U3As and to many other organisations and at libraries. You can see all my events for 2013 and 2014 on my official website.  If you'd like me to book me as a speaker please contact me via my website.

It is often difficult to find a new author and one whose novels you think you might enjoy but libraries are a great place for dipping your toe in the water, or rather for letting your fingers do the choosing and there is also a handy little book in UK libraries that can help with that.  It's called Who Else Writes Like? Reviewers have compared the Inspector Andy Horton novels to American writers, Ed McBain and Joseph Wambaugh and their British counterparts John Harvey and Peter Robinson both of the latter mentioned in the directory Who Else Writes Like? My crime novels are also compared to those written by Colin Dexter, Ann Cleeves, Robert Barnard, Graham Hurley, Dorothy Simpson and Neil White.   In addition, there is also a good website called Fantastic Fiction where it is suggested that if you like Peter James and Stephen Booth then you might also like the Inspector Andy Horton and the Art Marvik Mystery Thrillers.
