Crab Bait: A Gay Mystery

Infamous London boy whore the Pipe has been found dead on the Brighton sands, stirring an obsessive hunt for clues and culprits in this gay whodunnit from the Lammy-nominated author of LOOSE LIPS. The year is 1888, it's Ripper murders in the capital as the New World flaunts a Gilded Age. In London, best men seek solace in the gentlemen's clubs, away places catering to their every interest. Sizar's is a secret one, a new-club breed that lures athletic workhouse lads with the bait of a better life. But when a pledge gets dead-snagged under West Pier, a Scotland Yard detective hunts for clues. Scandals wash in, bodies mount, boys clash in jealous pursuit, death keeps things fresh and gone ones haunt as five men tell the tale of the curious case of the beautiful creature under the pier.
