Entertaining the gentlemen of Ferndown Probus, Dorset
I had a great time at the Dudsbury Golf Club, Hotel and Spa, Dorset on Wednesday entertaining the gentlemen of Ferndown Probus, not
on how to play a round of Golf or on any beauty matters but with tales
of criminality in respect of DI Andy Horton and Art Marvik.
I was delighted to be invited to give a talk about how I write my crime novels. They were a fab bunch and asked some interesting questions such as
'What's my preferred method of killing someone if I was a murderer ?'
and they even asked my husband 'What's the worse thing about being
married to a crime writer?' which he very diplomatically answered,
'nothing'. Maybe he had his fingers crossed!

Silent Running steams ahead with glowing review
I'm thrilled that Silent Running,
the first in the new crime series introducing former marine commando
Art Marvik has got off to a flying start with a great review from USA reviewer,
Booklist.
"Fans of Rowson’s DI Andy Horton books will be delighted with her new
series featuring former marine commando Art Marvik. A tense, terrifying
thrill ride that twists and turns with dizzying speed, combined with a
likable, smart, tough, but all too human hero, make this a cracking-good
new series—action fans need Marvik on their radar."
It's always lovely to get such positive feedback for a novel and I'm
also thrilled that some of my readers on Twitter and Facebook have said
how much they enjoyed it.
