BRIGHTON BELLE
ANOTHER BESTSELLER FROM THE AUTHOR OF IT ALWAYS RAINS ON SUNDAY
Set in the twilight world of racecourse tipsters and small-time gangsters, BRIGHTON BELLE is a searing, dramatic story of what happens to a group of oddly assorted people on a day in summer.
It is a chilling story about shady characters mixed up, for a violent period, with the law-abiding and the innocent, by an author who is master of suspense and evocation. Mr. LaBern's first novel IT ALWAYS RAINS ON SUNDAY was hailed by James Agate as "the most exciting thing of its kind since Somerset Maugham wrote "LIZA OF LAMBETH", and was filmed successfully by Ealing Studios.
