About the Author, Nick Eliason

Nick Eliason, retired merchant navy seaman, policeman and now a self-published author

Author Nick Eliason began his venture into the world in 1954.


During childhood and teenage years he developed a plethora of interests other than
school study. Adventure was always at the top of the list culminating in a career at sea followed by hunting criminals.


A passion for motorcycling has never waned and Nick continues in all his interests
whilst retired and living in Hertfordshire.


He is married with two sons and a daughter.


Cold Water Candles is his first book, with work underway on the follow-up chronicling the highs and lows (and downright daft) of his time in the British Police Force in the 80's & 90's.
