Sussex born prize-winning author Alex Preston was busy signing copies of his latest novel, ‘Winchelsea’ in Waterstones, Tenterden, last week, a critically acclaimed novel that is drenched in a love of place and history

This latest book is an immensely evocative historical novel of the salty seascapes of seventeenth-century Sussex, where a young woman descends into a cut-throat world of smugglers in a quest to avenge her father’s vicious slaying.

“An electrifying story of vengeance and transformation” says one critic, with heroine Goody Brown facing high seas, desperate villains, and “a taste of danger that makes her blood run fast.”

“Winchelsea is a remarkable act of literary time travel” according to fellow author Evie Wylde, “dark and gripping, and soaked in blood and saltwater.” And another review suggests “imagine Daphne du Maurier crossed with Quentin Tarantino, and you will have some idea of what a thrilling, bloody, and heady ride this novel is.”
