Twenty years ago, in a series of enigmatic and incandescent writings, David Seabrook delved into the depths of his knowledge, revealing the haunting landscapes of the declining resort towns nestled along the Kent coast. These pieces were far from a promotional brochure for the local tourist board, as they painted a vivid portrait of a place teeming with ghosts of murderers, mad artists, septuagenarian rent boys reminiscing about the good old days, and aging Carry On stars succumbing to decline. Underneath the surface of this seemingly ordinary town lurked clandestine fascist networks, their presence simmering in the shadows. And amidst this tumultuous backdrop, Seabrook himself stood as a desperate and vulnerable figure, his fate intertwined with the dark and mysterious forces that permeated the town. Dark, strange, and utterly immediate, this extraordinary work of sui generis British literature casts a haunting spell upon the reader, leaving an indelible mark that will linger long after the last page is turned. Within its pages, Seabrook uncovers the devils that lurk within the hearts of this town, and the reader is sure to remember them for years to come.
