Spanish City ( Autor: Sarah May ISBN 0-701-17281-9)

Little remains of the glamour of Setton once the North-Easts premier pleasure resort. The Spanish City is boarded up ; its famous Charleston rollercoaster turning rapidly to rust. nly in Moscadini's ice-cream parlour, with its glowing mural of an arcadian coastline, is there a hint of its former glory. It is here that the world - weary teacher Hal Price is brought by his teenage kidnappers to meet a ghost. As the snow falls outside and Hal relives memories of his dancing days, he tells the boys a story - a tale of wartime dreams and peacetime disappointments, of love, betrayal, death and resurrection.
