"Pauline Rowson is the mistress of weaving intricate plot twists in complicated tales that keep the reader on his/her toes to the very end...an author who never disappoints." Amazon

"The Harley Davidson-riding, boat-dwelling Horton is a fascinating man to get to know, and his thoughtful approach to detection is a pleasure to read." Publishers Weekly

"A great read for mystery lovers with plenty to keep you guessing until the last moment."  Crime Book Club (DI Andy Horton crime novels)

"Pure detection mixed with a bit of history. Love these characters and the setting is great.” Goodreads (Inspector Ryga Mysteries)

'I loved this fast-paced story with enough twists and turns in a plot that kept me guessing right to the last page. If you enjoy an exciting crime novel, where you can rush breathlessly alongside the hero as he unravels a complicated mystery while fending off one danger after another, then you should give this one a try. It won't disappoint.'  Amazon (Art Marvik mystery thrillers)

"For lovers of mysteries without the gory details. The ending was a twist I didn't see coming." Amazon (Inspector Ryga mystery)

"A tense, terrifying thrill ride that twists and turns with dizzying speed. A likeable, smart, tough, but all too human hero make this a cracking-good series - action fans need Marvik on their radar." Booklist (Art Marvik mystery thrillers)


"Pauline Rowson is one of the most talented crime and thriller writers in the UK. By choosing locations and plot lines that are unique to her 'marine mysteries' she has set herself apart from the tried and tested formulae within the genre." The Book Depository

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.

Chinese Translations And New Business Books
