About the Book

A BRAND-NEW CRIME THRILLER SET ON THE SOUTH COAST OF ENGLAND. A box of treasure. A burned body and an old flame. Detective Inspector Andy Horton arrives at Portsmouth CID to find a rusty, old metal box on his desk. It was found in the mud at Sinah Lake and contains a collection of rare gold and silver coins. But why are there handcuffs attached to the box? Or more importantly, who was originally attached to it? Soon after, Horton is called out to an isolated stretch of Gosport shore where a body has been found in a burned-out car. But the vehicle and body are so badly charred that it's almost impossible to identify the victim. Then Horton is dealt a double blow when his old flame Harriet Ames drops a bombshell: she's been transferred to a local police team and they're going to be seeing a lot more of each other. Horton can't let Harriet distract him. Not now. Especially when another body has just been discovered . . . An absolutely gripping detective mystery perfect for fans of Ann Cleeves, Joy Ellis, Rachel McLean, Helen H. Durrant, Angela Marsons, Elly Griffiths, Karin Slaughter, Matt Brolly and Simon McCleave. THE DETECTIVEDI Andy Horton's mum walked out on him when he was a child and he grew up in a children's home. Now he lives onboard his yacht in Southsea Marina. He rides a Harley-Davidson and never wears a suit or tie - unless it's to go to court. He's an instinctive copper and a man of contrasts, which often lands him in trouble with his bosses. He has a desperate need to belong, and yet is always just on the outside. Self-contained, afraid to show his feelings, but he's a risk-taker that seeks justice. THE SETTINGPortsmouth boasts a vibrant waterfront, a diverse multicultural population, an international port, a historic dockyard, and is home of the Royal Navy. Portsmouth Harbour is one of the busiest in the world - and one of the best places to hide a body, it seems. Set against the backdrop of the sea, the Solent area of Portsmouth and the Isle of Wight is every detective's worst nightmare. The sea is ever-changing and often the best clues get swept away by the tide.

About the Author :
Adventure, mystery and heroes have always fascinated and thrilled Pauline, that and her love of the sea has led her to create her exciting and gripping range of crime novels. 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.
