Synopsis

In An Irregular Life, Mark McPherson describes how a childhood fascination with Arthur Conan Doyle and the Great Detective became a defining, lived pursuit. His work led to the creation of the DAEDALOS Investigative Agency and to enquiries spanning literary, historical, paranormal and criminal mysteries, alongside public roles as a lecturer, journalist, author, actor, playwright and film-maker.

The memoir recounts investigations and expeditions ranging from the Loch Ness Monster and Egypt’s Giza Plateau to the Shakespeare authorship mystery, the Shroud of Turin and an underwater search for Atlantis, as well as archaeological work in Britain connected with Arthurian legends. It also covers his involvement with Sherlock Holmes organisations, including work with the Sherlock Holmes Society of London, consultation with Scotland Yard in 1979, and the development of “Evening With Sir Arthur Conan Doyle” with Dame Jean Conan Doyle and Richard Lancelyn Green. Presented as “the first and last of my memoirs”, it will suit readers interested in McPherson’s own account of his career and affiliations.
