When a seaside town is gripped in a vice of drug fuelled corruption, sometimes the only solution is to book a dance with the Morris Men.

He soon realises that all is not as it seems, and the Tendring Guild of the Morris Men is actually a cover for a secret society of shadowy assassins, as ancient as the British realm.

It sounds harsh, but again, so much of what is occurring speaks not to beauty, but bedlam.
