One day he trails an old gentleman with a  bulging pocket, deftly picks it, and as footsteps ring out from the  alley by which he had planned to make his escape, finds himself in a  tough spot. Taking refuge in a doorway, he sees two men emerge to murder  the man who was his mark. They rifle the dead man’s pockets and finding  them empty, depart in a rage. Smith, terrified, flees the scene of the  crime. What has he stolen that is worth the life of a man?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSmith\u003c\/i\u003e is a gripping, engrossing, and utterly diverting tale of high adventure  related by a writer whose scintillating style is matched only by the  dazzle of his plotting. In the words of Lloyd Alexander, “Garfield is  unmatched for sheer exciting storytelling. The reader simply can’t stop  reading him.”","brand":"New York Review Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47158815457520,"sku":"9781590177105","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781590177105_p0.jpg?v=1763808773","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781590177105","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
