Life
Seabrook studied English and American Literature at the University of Kent at Canterbury gaining an MA with a dissertation on Marcel Proust. Subsequently, he worked as a teacher of English as a foreign language in Greece. Until his death he lived alone at Westside Apartments in Canterbury. He was discovered dead in his flat by Kent police. There is unconfirmed speculation that Seabrook was murdered. However, this has never been officially established.
Work
Seabrook is known for his extensively researched books rich with literary and historical associations on previously untouched or assumedly insignificant subjects and locations.
In his book Jack of Jumps Seabrook attempts to identify Jack the Stripper, a serial killer who murdered eight prostitutes in West London in the early sixties. Seabrook gives a meticulous account of the police work; however, the murderer remains unknown, although the book contains insinuations as to his identity.
All the Devils are Here is Seabrook’s account of Kent's unglamorous seaside towns entwined with local literary and celebrity history.
At the time of his death Seabrook was working on a book about the life and mysterious suicide of the show business solicitor David Jacobs.
