  1. Triangeldrama i 60-talets Brighton. En man gifter sig...
    Murre Katt, 9 augusti 2013

    Triangeldrama i 60-talets Brighton. En man gifter sig till slut fast han egentligen vill ha den unge stilige konstapeln som inte törs komma ut. En inblick i dubbelmoralens England. Bra skriven roman om än med en ledsam historia.
