Stark naked and bludgeoned to death. Eight months ago, DI Horton was suspended for misconduct. And now it doesn’t look good for him to be the one to find a dead body.

A note is found on the victim with the words ‘Have you forgotten ME?’ scrawled on it. The victim is Jessica Langley, a steely, determined woman who has made enemies on her path to success. But did any of them hate her enough to want her dead? Horton is in a race against time to stop the killer.<br /><br /><b>BOOK 3: THE HORSEA MARINA MURDERS</b></p><p><br />One foggy December night, Detective Inspector Andy Horton is called to the site of a burning boat on Horsea Marina.

All her crime novels are set agains the backdrop of the sea in the UK. <br /><p></p><p>It usually takes me nine months to write a crime novel, six months at a push depending on what else is going on in my life!</p><p>I
like to write the first draft as quickly as I can. I don't do intricate
plotting beforehand, I just have a basic idea, a location and usually a
body, or an incident, and work on it from there. I also have some brief
sketches of new characters who will feature in the book (alongside my
regulars) and then I will get cracking. I plot and research as I go
along. <br />
</p>
<h4>I usually aim to have the first draft written within three months. <br />
</h4>
<h4>I don't word count but write as much, or as little, as the book, my mood and the day demands. However, I do write every day.</h4>
<p>Once the basic storyline is on screen (about 86k words) I get down
to working on it. Fleshing out the characters, their idiosyncrasies,
their personalities, motivations and more. I refine the plotting, put in
the clues and red herrings and look for plot holes and correct them. <br />
</p>
<h4>I usually go through eight revisions of a novel before I am happy with it.</h4>
<p>Often it is a good idea to put some distance between revisions.
Therefore once I have got to revision three/four, or maybe even five, I
will set aside that novel and start researching the next one. When I
have the idea for the next novel, have researched the locality, the
historical aspects it if is an Inspector Ryga 1950s set mystery, the
main character (the victim) and other key characters it is time to set
that aside and continue the revisions with the other novel. <br />
</p>
<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">There is also useful time to be spent away from the keyboard.</span></p>
<p>In addition to long walks around the coastal area, where I'm always
looking for a good place to put a body (fictional), I indulge in many
creative pastimes. Knitting and crochet not only produce some very nice
cardigans and but also helps to stimulate the little grey cells as
Poirot would put it. I can merrily while away the time in my character's
heads, thinking out their motivations while sewing, painting, knitting,
walking and crocheting although not all at the same time! And of course
reading is a great escape.</p>
<p> So that's it in a nutshell. I very much enjoy writing my crime
novels and I sincerely hope that my readers continue to enjoy reading
them.</p>

things inspired me for THE SOUTH BINNESS MURDERS, DI Andy Horton Solent

</div>
<div>In this DI Andy Horton mystery I chose to have a blood-stained
abandoned boat belonging to a Portsmouth refuse collector – who could
either have had an accident and fallen overboard or been murdered – and
an art theft which isn’t an art theft in the usual way. </div><div><br />
