'I, Said the Sparrow' is set on the Sussex coast, 1910-21. 'The Paper Palace' x 'Weyward'.
A quiet, seaside town thinks it can keep its secrets until a man is pulled from The Arun gutted like a fish. Now noone's secret is safe. #SmallPitch #A #NVL #HR #UP #amquerying #amwriting – at Littlehampton, England

ALT The words Neither Time Nor Tide Wait for Love or Murder. Seven images: a man and woman kissing, two women kissing, a young woman sitting alone on a crowded beach, two young men in WWI British military uniforms - all in black and white. A dead rabbit, a dead fish, an old copy of a tourist guide to Brighton and Hove with a red cover.
