Deserves mention in the same breath as works in the upper echelon of American procedurals (those by Ed McBain or Joseph Wambaugh for example) and their British counterparts, including the work of Peter Robinson and John Harvey. Procedural fans who haven't already read Rowson should be encouraged to do so in the strongest possible terms. --Booklist Starred Review
Rowson's latest should please both Andy Horton fans and puzzle aficionados. --Kirkus USA
Footsteps on the Shore, is a detective novel in the tradition of Rankin and Harvey. Like Rebus, DI Andy Horton is a detective who does not always work within the rules. As with all Rowson novels the ending is dramatic and deeply menacing. If you are a fan of traditional detective fiction in a vivid setting that makes you believe that you are there, you will love this one. --Mystery People Magazine
