Are ESP, Ghosts and Faerie legends entirely unconnected? Are they all
aspects of one and the same thing? Fester is a curry eating, onion beer
swilling firefighter who works at a crumbling fire station in a crumbling
Yorkshire village. The rest of his crew consists of a naïve recruit, a
closet opera singer, a maniac who thinks a thirteen ton fire engine will
handle like a rally car and a paranoid, promotion-mad station officer. His
comfortable existence is shattered by the arrival of a keen and efficient
new sub-officer who sets about the rehabilitation of Red Watch. Jenny
Anderson intends to transform them from a lazy and lack lustre crew into a
lean, mean firefighting machine.
A story of fires, road accidents and explosions interspersed with
unicorns, levitation and telepathy. Follow Fester as he comes to terms with
a past he didn't know existed and a far from straight forward future. |
| The ghost of his long dead great grandfather
further complicates Fester's life. So much so that, much to his surprise, he
develops ESP and a University Parapsychologist helps him develop his new
power. Up on the moors above the village, a keen gardener appropriates a
rock from an ancient stone circle and inadvertently opens a gateway into
another world. To save his community from the ravages of the evil Prince of
the Farice, Fester and Jenny must journey through the gate in search of a
replacement stone.
