AbstractHistoryArchive Description

Murder and passion against the lawless background of a city in the making. Here's the grim story of passion on parole in a world peopled by miserable wretches living only to pay a debt to society. Read the amazing story of the 'bride-giving' where women are paraded like cattle to be chosed as brides by the human derelicts who share their unwalled prison. Here is a story rich in drama and colour, a story to be read and enjoyed many times over.' (Publisher's blurb)
