The Last King of Brighton by Peter Guttridge
A man impaled on the South Downs. Another skinned alive. A skeleton found beneath the West Pier, its feet encased in concrete. Brighton has been invaded. But this is no mere power struggle between rival mobsters; the motives for the killings stretch back through the decades, to an explosive forty-year-old secret Brighton's crime king John Hathaway would rather forget. But someone else remembers - and that someone has decided that revenge is a dish best served cold . . .
Guttridge, Peter: - Award-winning comic crime author Peter Guttridge turned from the Daft Side to the Dark Side for his Brighton mystery series, which started with the City of Dreadful Night and with the last in the series being 2014's Those Who Feel Nothing. He was also the Observer's crime fiction critic for twelve years, meaning he's read far more crime fiction than is good for him.
