Fourth in DI Andy Horton marine mystery crime series, Dead Man's Wharf, to be published in China
The fourth in the DI Andy Horton marine mystery crime series, Dead Man's Wharf,by Pauline Rowson,has been published in China by Nanhai Publishing Company of Haikou.
Nanhai Publishing bought translation rights to six novels in the DI Horton series published in the UK, Commonwealth and USA by Severn House. Deadly Waters, the second in the Horton series and The Suffocating Sea, the third in the series have recently been published in China and the remainder in the DI Horton series are to be published over the coming months.
Dead Man's Wharf
Horton and Cantelli are called to a nursing home where an elderly resident, suffering from dementia, claims she's been attacked by an intruder. Horton is ready to dismiss it as senile ramblings until he discovers that her room-mate has died, the dead woman's belongings are missing and her son, convicted for armed robbery, has been found dead in his cell. Coupled with a series of threatening telephone calls to a television personality, and a mother's conviction that her son's death on Christmas Eve was no accident, Horton finds he is caught up in a complex investigation that has far-reaching international implications. With the pressure on to find a killer, and hampered by his belief that his bosses are lying to him, Horton discovers that he's stepped into a web of intrigue, deception and corruption that stretches back into the past.

New DI Horton published Undercurrent by Pauline Rowson
Undercurrent,the ninth in the marine mystery crime series featuring the flawed and rugged detective DI Horton is now published in the UK and Commonwealth by Severn House. It will be published in the USA on 1 May 2013.
Set in the Solent area on the South Coast of England the DI Horton series has received critical acclaim both in the UK and the USA where they have been compared to the works of Ed McBain and Joseph Wambaugh, and their British counterparts Peter Robinson and John Harvey. Translation rights to the Horton series have recently been sold to China where they are being published in 2013.
American Reviewer Booklist says, "Andy Horton is 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. Procedural fans who haven’t already read Rowson should be encouraged to do so in the strongest possible terms."
Undercurrent
When naval historian Dr Douglas Spalding is found dead in Portsmouth’s Historic Dockyard, the Major Crime Team is adamant it is suicide. Detective Inspector Horton is not so sure. Then another body is found in similar circumstances and Horton is convinced they’re looking at murder; but not so his bosses. Angry and frustrated at the lack of investigation, Horton goes out on a limb to prove he’s right. Whichever way he turns, he finds the deaths have all the hallmarks of a cover up at the highest level, but who is behind it and why? Soon Horton begins to find disturbing similarities with his own private investigations into the disappearance of his mother thirty years ago. As he gets closer to the truth someone is determined to prevent it from ever being revealed, even if means death . . .
