Ian Thomas is beloved around the world as the singer/songwriter of such smash hits as 'Painted Ladies', 'Hold On', and 'Right Before Your Eyes'. Now the creative force that gave us so many classic hit songs has turned to novel writing -- and what a novel: 'Bequest' tells the story of a Canadian-American university professor beset with visions of dire things past, present and future; of death and tragedy and dark secrets hidden in the American countryside. Filled with touches of humour and personal observations on the human condition, 'Bequest' also features a ruthless waste management firm that finds toxic garbage is gold and no amount of environmental damage or loss of life is too high a price to pay for massive profits. Thomas breathes life into his characters and keeps our heart rates soaring as he skilfully takes the plot through unexpected twists and turns and masterfully builds tension to the breaking point.
