From the moment Bob boards the northbound train, the life he knew before comes to an end—and another, more harrowing one begins. Soon after arriving in Mauch Chunk, Bob is threatened by a notorious cross-town gang, the Center Street Scorpions. As if that’s not enough, Bob also initiates a dangerous game of cat-and-mouse with the cruelest, most diabolical man in town, the Cyclops—a greedy mine owner who will stop at nothing, including murder, to own every coal mine in the county. But Bob is determined to put a stop to the Cyclops’s sinister schemes—and the results are explosive.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e            \u003cbr\u003eFrom the author of \u003ci\u003eJim Thorpe Never Slept Here \u003c\/i\u003eand \u003ci\u003eLeap of Faith\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe South Street Gang vs. the Coalcracker Cyclops\u003c\/i\u003e is an exciting tale that brings the powers of good and evil to the streets of small-town America.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"University of Scranton Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47055778316528,"sku":"9781589662087","price":8.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781589662087_p0.jpg?v=1763808938","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781589662087","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
