'france showing fish's guide control' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.

'quietly clive arranged to end' is the wordplay.
'quietly' becomes 'p' (p for piano and quiet).
'arranged' indicates anagramming the letters.
'to end' becomes 'fin' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'clive' anagrammed gives 'elvic'.
'p'+'elvic'+'fin'='PELVIC FIN'

'in' is the link.
