April 
There is before and after, like one of those slimming adverts you see in magazines and newspapers. Only my before and after had nothing to do with diet, unless you counted prison food. Before prison I had been confident and successful. I had a family and a career. I had friends. And after? Well, here I am standing outside Camp Hill on the Isle of Wight getting high on the smell of diesel and petrol fumes, hesitant, with a prison pallor and a prison stoop.
Description: A compelling, gripping tale of what happens to one man when someone steals his identity
 
Alex Albury has it all: a successful public relations business, a luxurious house, a beautiful wife and two sons. Then one September morning the police burst into his home and arrest him. Now, three and a half years later, newly released from Camp Hill Prison on the Isle of Wight, Alex is intent on finding the man who framed him for fraud and embezzlement. All he knows is his name: James Andover. But who is he? Where is he? 

Alex embarks on his quest to track down Andover, but with the trail cold he is frustrated at every turn. Worse, he finds himself under suspicion by the police. The pressure is on and Aex has to unearth the answers and quick. But time is running out. For Alex the future looks bleak and soon he is left with the option - to kill or be killed.
Notes: A compelling thriller set on the south coast of England and the Isle of Wight. Read more and listen to the author on her official web site www.rowmark.co.uk

Reviews for In For The Kill
'I was hooked from the first page. Pauline Rowson's thrillers are a contemporary take on the classic page-turner. She weaves terrific plots around memorable characters, including In For The Kill's reluctant hero, Alex Albury. Her writing is as sharp as a punch in the ribs. Attention-grabbing. Compulsive. Next one please!' Editor - Hampshire Life Magazine.

'This is an incredible story, only work got in the way of finishing it in one go. Once you start to read this you will not be able to put it down. Pauline Rowson's writing makes you feel for the main character until you are almost possessed. A stupendous read right down to the last page.' Bob Hornby posted on www.booktribes.com
