Description

Ted Deerhurst's life was marked by a relentless pursuit of surfing and escape. Born into a world of nobility, he found solace in the sport, but never quite reached the heights he desired. His quest for perfection led him to Hawaii, where he became embroiled in a world of glamour and danger. In this gripping true story, Ted's obsession with surfing is revealed alongside his doomed love affair with Lola, a dancer at a Honolulu nightclub. The allure of paradise proved to be a fatal attraction, as Ted found himself entangled in a web of gangsters and deceit. Surf, Sweat and Tears is a dark and compelling tale of one man's downfall. A gripping exploration of the surfing world, this book delves into the darker side of global surfing culture, where obsession and danger lurk beneath the surface.
