This savage novel may shock you - but you'll never forget it. Bantam Books Inc. believes its readers want to know the brutal truth about juvenile delinquents - and whether there is any hope for them.

ZUBIAT

. . . that was his name . . . this sixteen-year old son of a jailbird father and a no-good mother. No wonder he already had a shady past behind him - and nothing ahead of him but a terrible, blood-stained future.

Then he was sentenced to Camp Matthews - "Angels Camp." There he met a lot of young hoodlums, whose life-stories will shock you. But he also met Mr. Grozier, the counselor who really wanted to help.

Coul Grozier win his battle for Zubiat . . . against Zubiat himself?

"Boot-tough novel . . . skillfully done . . . should go a long way toward awakening the public to the truth about juvenile delinquency." - KING FEATURES SYNDICATE
