Falling in love with Inspector Andy Horton

I thought it might sound odd saying that I was in love with Andy Horton but having read a recent survey that said a high percentage of women are more in love with fictional characters than their partners I feel a lot better about it. Although I had better say here and now that I, am, of course, still in love with my long suffering husband, Bob! Phew, that lets me off the hook.
Apparently James Bond tops the list of the character most women love and he too is fit and fearless and I suppose if you think of the films rather than the books, where you can let your imagination create your own version of Bond, it depends which Bond you have fallen in love with. I know who my hero is, the wonderful Roger Moore.
But, I am pleased to say that it is not just women who like DI Andy Horton but my male readers also admire him and enjoy reading about his exploits.
Adventure, mystery and heroes have always fascinated me and put that with the ever changing sea, one moment light and calm, the next dark and deadly, beautiful and beguiling but deceptively dangerous, and you have the perfect recipe for a crime series.

So, just for the reader who left a review on Amazon, who doesn't like the fact that Horton rarely calls for back up, sorry but he's just that the kind of cop.
Horton is not a by-the-book typical police officer but a maverick, go-it-alone kind of guy, which reflects his upbringing (in children's homes) and his personality. No, it's not true to life or how a real cop would act in today's police world but then it is fiction after all.
Happy reading.
