In Flagrante, Killip's "subjective book about my time in England" during its "de-industrialisation" (Killip's preface) is one of the greatest photobooks of the late 20th century, "a dark, pessimistic journey, perhaps even a secret odyssey, where rigorous documentary is suffused with a contemplative inwardness, a rare quality in modern photography" (Gerry Badger).

Fourteen images from the Seacoal series were also included in Killip’s groundbreaking book In Flagrante (1988). People worked hard, made little, and correctly believed that their government took them for granted.
