Born and raised in the coastal city of Portsmouth in the UK, Pauline Rowson draws her inspiration for her crime novels from the area. When she isn't writing (which isn't often) she can be found walking the coastal paths on the Isle of Wight and around Langstone and Chichester Harbours looking for a good place to put a body! Pauline is the author of twenty-four crime novels - sixteen featuring the rugged and flawed Portsmouth detective, Inspector Andy Horton; four in the mystery thriller series featuring Art Marvik, the troubled former Royal Marine Commando now an undercover investigator for the UK's National Intelligence Marine Squad (NIMS); two standalone thrillers, the award-winning In Cold Daylight and In For the Kill, and the 1950 set mystery series featuring Scotland Yard detective, Inspector Alun Ryga, who makes his debut in Death in the Cove with his second investigation Death in the Harbour. Her crime novels have been highly acclaimed in the UK, USA and Commonwealth and they have been translated into several languages. Multi-layered, fast-paced, and compelling, they are full of twists and turns and are played out against the dramatic and powerfully evocative British marine landscape of the south coast of England. Pauline is a member of the Crime Writers' Association and the Society of Authors. Before becoming a full-time writer, she was a renowned marketing and training guru, with a collection of 'how to' business books and a successful marketing, media and training career behind her.\"","brand":"Joffe Books Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51705407963410,"sku":"9781805733409","price":11.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_2e8839cd-34b8-4836-909b-4e0e96a1cabd.jpg?v=1762346928","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/lethal-storm-a-gripping-british-crime-thriller-full-of-twists-9781805733409","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
