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.

CHRISTIE WAS CAUGHT

between two worlds. In the world of easy money, excitement, kicks, Christie's pals were neighbourhood punks like:

MODO - who lived for violence.

PEG - who was everybody's girl.

VINCE - who didn't want to be called "chicken."

But there was another world, too- the world of:

VICTOR - who played square with everyone.

Mr. CROSSMAN - who tried to show Christie that growing up could be decent - and fun.
