Murder, Mystery and Mayhem in Southampton with DI Andy Horton

Last week I entertained the gentlemen of the Southampton lunch time Probus Club with tales of Mystery, Murder and Mayhem, where I gave a talk about my rugged and flawed detective, DI Andy Horton and the mystery crime series set against the backdrop of the sea in the Solent area (Portsmouth and the Isle of Wight) on the South Coast of England.

I talked about how I write the DI Horton series and my two stand alone crime novels, In For The Kill and In Cold Daylight, explaining about creating characters, developing plots from ideas and how I construct plotlines.

I finished my talk by reading the short prologue from my crime thriller novel In For The Kill and then took questions from the audience.

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.
