A modern-day Sherlock Holmes, Bernie Quist operates as a consultant detective from Baker Avenue in York. His assistant is Watson, although this Watson is a youth from the Grimpen housing estate and he's definitely no doctor. The mismatched duo take on bizarre cases which invariably lead into the realms of the supernatural, a shadowy world Quist is all too familiar with. Rex Grant has vanished from a hotel without paying the bill, but the police seem more concerned with the murdered girl in his room. Investigating their friend's disappearance, Quist and Watson are intrigued by his connection to the superstar singer Ligeia and the lethal mercenary soldiers who act as her management team. Irana Adler heads the squad - a female Colonel who doesn't take kindly to intrusion - and Quist is amazed to discover that Laurel and Hardy are part of the singer's entourage, something which is not only surprising, but pretty much impossible. A dark and very peculiar game is afoot, and Ligeia's musical voice may not be as sweet as it sounds…

Ian Jarvis grew up in the seaside town of Ramsgate, in the county of Kent, which is known as the 'Garden of England.' He served in the Royal Navy and upon leaving, began working locally, where he found his niche in management. He successfully completed management courses in college, where he honed his writing skills, he remained in management for several more years. Ian won a prize, several years ago, when he entered a 'Child and Parent' poetry competition, at his sons school, this gave him the confidence to continue writing poetry and begin writing short stories. Over a 20-year period, Ian frequently fished along the shore at Sandwich Bay in Kent, England, which is the location of his book, 'Light in the sky.' He has many memories of his times spent along the coast, where he witnessed several incidents, some of which found their way into, 'Light in the sky.' Moving to Canada in 2008, he settled in a small town, where his writing continues, and he also secured employment as an operations manager. His favorite past-time is fishing. He fished in the sea in England, he now fishes on the ice, during the winter or from a boat during the summer, in the fresh waters to be found in Canada. Ian has work in progress, which follows on where 'Light in the sky' left off, in 'Memories of the future.'
