Night haunts

Edición de la obra Night Haunts

London atnight has always been seen as a lawless orgy of depravity andpestilence. But is it now as bland and unthreatening as any new town?Sukhdev Sandhu journeys across the city to find out whether the Londonnight really has been rendered neutral by street lighting and CCTVcameras. His nocturnal forays see him prospecting in the London nightwith the people who drive its pulse, from the avian police to securityguards, urban fox hunters and exorcists. He wades through the sewers, hangs out with pirate DJs, and accompanies the marine patrol lookingfor midnight corpses. Beautifully written, Night Haunts seeks to reclaim the mystery and romance of the city--to revitalize the great myth of London for a new century. -- Book jacket.
