JAILBAIT STREET

Running Wild from darkness till dawn-snatching at love in deserted alleys or lonely rooftops-today's tough juvenile punks have turned our city streets into asphalt jungles of terror and lawlessness.

This is the savagely realistic story of teen-age gang-the Sultans-and their mixed-up leader, Silkie Meegan, whose desperate search for manhood drove him into frenzied excesses of violence and vice...

From the vengeance beating with bicycle chains of a rival gang...to the degraded sharing of sweet, virginal Carol with the rest of his gang. And finally to the fateful family feud with his own father over Charlotte-his father's prostitute mistress-who first taught Silkie her own kind of Jailbait Street love, then hired him to dig up new "business" for her.
