Excerpt from The Rock Ahead, Vol. 1 of 3: A Novel Hot in Brighton, very hot. The August sun reflected off white-chalk cliff and red-brick pavement, and the sea shining and sparkling like a sapphire, the statue of George the Fourth, in its robe of verdigris, looking on in blighted perspiration at the cabmen at its base, as though imploring a drink, the cabmen lolling undemonstratively on the boxes of their vehicles, not seeking for employment, and - partly by reason of the heat, but more, perhaps, in consequence of the money received recently at the races - rather annoyed than other wise when their services were called into requisition.
