Pauline Rowson video - from Inspiration, ideas, plotlines to crime novels - the DI Horton series

This video was filmed during a talk I gave to a lovely audience at Sandhurst Library in December 2013.

In this extract I am talking about the inspiration behind my DI Andy Horton crime novels and how I develop ideas into plot lines.

I hope you enjoy watching it.  For all my forthcoming talks please visit the events page.  If you would like me to speak to your organisation, library or group please contact me.




Pauline Rowson has been hailed as "redefining the genre of police drama" by setting it against the atmospheric backdrop of the ever changing sea. Her cops are tough yet fallible.The DI Andy Horton series of crime novels has everything: compelling crimes, complex past history, a tough work environment, romantic entanglements and political intrigue played out against the dramatic and powerfully evocative British marine landscape of Portsmouth and the Solent.

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.
