Comment: There isn't a single source supporting any of this information, and the sources provided are neither reliable, nor independent. One of them is an error page(!), one is a Goodreads link (user generated website, not reliable), one is a reference showing that a book exists but nothing more, and one is a sales link. bonadea contributions talk 12:43, 4 March 2025 (UTC)
- Comment: Please don't resubmit without adding substantial sources and reviewing WP:GNG and WP:BKD. It would probably make more sense, if there are substantial reviews in independent reliable sources of any of the books or the series itself, to instead focus on creating articles for individual books that have the review sourcing, or the series. The vast majority of characters from novels etc aren't notable enough on their own for articles (see WP:BKD), so I think you're starting at the wrong end of this proverbial puzzle. Please see this guide to writing your first article. I know that it can be a frustrating process but there is unfortunately somewhat of a learning curve involved here.

Jacob Asch is a fictional Private eye created by the writer Arthur Lyons. His background is given in several of the Asch novels: he was a reporter who wrote an article describing the motivations of a murder suspect and was fired by his boss for refusing to divulge his source. He became a private investigator because he was finished in the journalism trade. He has had some success in his new line of work even before the novel begins and frequently comes up against violent killers during his cases. Created by the late Arthur Lyons, Asch appears in at least seven novels, one of which was made into a film, Slow Burn, in 1985.
