An atmospheric crime thriller featuring a teenage sociopath intent on becoming the underworld boss of Brighton. Having murdered a man who had betrayed his gang the young gangster Pinky Brown tries to covers his tracks but circumstances never seem to go his way and he becomes ever more desperate, even going so far as to marry a young girl who witnessed the shooting, it being the law at that time that a man’s wife could not be forced to testify against him.
