Synopsis

Operating from Baker Avenue in York, Bernie Quist takes on unusual investigations with an assistant called Watson, a young man from the Grimpen housing estate. When their friend Rex Grant disappears from an Edinburgh hotel, the circumstances quickly become complicated: Rex has vanished without settling his bill, while the police focus on a murdered girl found in his room.

As Quist and Watson dig deeper, their enquiries draw them towards superstar singer Ligeia and her formidable management team of mercenary soldiers, led by Irana Adler, a Colonel who resists scrutiny. Strange details begin to surface, including the seemingly impossible presence of Laurel and Hardy among the squad, and Quist senses that something far more peculiar is at work than a straightforward disappearance. Suitable for readers who enjoy detective fiction that edges into the supernatural.
