Dead in the Water
 
The Sarnian Cover

A body on a beach, an impossible alibi and an unstoppable race against time

Oliver Carey could never have guessed how his life would be turned upside down the day he discovered a body in Marble Bay.

Tasked with reporting the news — not becoming a part of it — he finds himself the focus of the police enquiry, and pulled in two directions.

How can he prove that he isn’t the killer, while bagging an exclusive story — one that will keep his editor happy and help him keep his job? For if Carey is fired, he loses his access to the Sarnian archive, and with it the only chance he has of answering the question that brought him back to the island two years before:

What became of his father — and what happened the night he disappeared from his boat in the waters off Guernsey?

For the avoidance of doubt

All of the characters, organisations, publications and narrative of the Sarnian series, any related publications, products and web sites are fictitious.

What's this all about?

This web site, and its contents, are here to support The Sarnian, a series of books set on and around the Channel Islands, and Guernsey in particular. It started as a means of keeping track of each character so that their features, loves, desires, abilities, looks and so on didn't change from book to book and has grown to become a complete encyclopedia of the series. Unless otherwise stated, the images included on this site were taken by The Sarnian author, Nik Rawlinson, who is also the author of the content.
