DI Andy Horton is an enigma, reliable but sometimes unreachable
"DI Andy Horton is an enigma, reliable but sometimes unreachable, a little lost, but knows what he wants! My fav. kind of DI."
That's
how one reader describes Inspector Andy Horton who is featured in 15
crime novels. It's a great description and sums Andy up perfectly. To me
and to many of my readers, DI Andy Horton is, of course, a hero. But
not a perfect one, far from it. Who is?
Heroes have always fascinated me. It probably stems from reading so many thrillers and spy novels as a child. Then I married a hero, well he is to me, a former RAF Police Officer and Hampshire fire-fighter from Red Watch, Portsmouth, UK, who took many risks and saved many lives throughout his career. It’s no wonder then that I turned to writing about a hero.
DI Andy Horton has also been described as 'an especially good series hero, a likeable fellow with plenty of street smarts and the requisite personal baggage - an abrasive supervisor and an antagonistic soon to be ex-wife.' Booklist (USA).
