If you're a slum kid you've got to be tough to survive, and Kenny is tough-on the surface. But his adolescence is a desperate struggle against a growing physical affliction. He suffers the nightmare of rejection, even by his 'hero' Dan, who has his own torments, a shameful obsession indulged only behind locked doors and with a girl friend who is a prostitute.

It is these dark secrets that lead to Kenny's final solitary act of horrifying destruction.

This looks like/is the third edition of Rebel in the Streets with a new title and new cover art, that is a little more 'sleaze'. The title page still says Rebel in the Streets and the first printing date of 1964. There is no 'blurb' on the back cover, just part of the front cover in black and white. The inside of the front cover has "Also known as Rebel in the Streets" printed on it. It seems to me that Tower Books just re-covered old stock with a new sleazy Lesbian themed cover, maybe to cash in on a "sleaze" trend, just get rid off the dead stock or to fool people into thinking that they were getting a brand new book, whatever their reasons were, it's another cool book for us to collect!

The Story of New York's Girl Gangs

A dramatic expose of one of the most shocking and least publicized problems of the big cities

Here is a strange and savage story of the Dagger Debs, a girl gang. Girls between childhood misbehavior and adult crime. Girls who get drunk on cheap wine and high marijuana. Girls who are profane, sexually promiscuous, aggressive and anti-social. Here is their gripping, shocking story. A piercing social document, it will hold you in profound fascination and utter disbelief.

Written by the author of award-winning "I Lived with a Teen-Gang," a series which appeared in the New York Daily News, REBELS IN THE STREETS is a compelling narrative, a truthful, moving portrait of the violence that courses through a great city, of those who try and stop it, and of the lives it touches and tears. It is a true story. Names and neighborhoods have been changed, but the people are real, the events are true.

West stood an inch shorter than Rick, squirming to release himself.

Rick's hand crushed tighter on the collar. He peered into the hateful eyes and spoke quietly. "Pronounce my name correctly, West."

The Class had grown terribly quiet.

"You want me to pronounce your name, sir?" West asked politely.

"You heard me."

"- you, Mr. Daffy..."

Rick's hand lashed out, slapping West squarely across the mouth....And then the knife snapped into view, sudden and terrifying. Long and shining, it caught the pale sunlight that slanted through the long schoolroom windows.

'She's a pretty doll, Mr. Elgin.

You don't want nothing to happen to her...'

Then the phone went dead.

This new Joseph Hayes thriller races on with ever-mounting tension through minutes and hours of a single night. Flashing from parents tortured by fear for their daughter, to the girl herself alone with a devil obsessed, this is a novel of almost unbearable suspense.

A Road Odyssey

California. Summer. A young man and a beautiful girl, hitch-hiking along the coast. A time of sunshine, sleeping out in a shared sleeping bag, making love in the open air. A time to get high - on scenery, on each other, on pot. But sometimes things get out of hand. A lift from a queer warlock becomes an excruciating experience of sexual embarrassment...a burly truck driver out of his skull on speed gets horny for the girl...a lift from a clean-living all-American family turns into a nightmare alcoholic binge...and that's not all. Not by a long way....

Funny and terrifying by turns, Don Mitchell's award-winning novel (soon to be a major movie) is one of the most entertaining and thoughtful pieces of writing to come out of the new youth scene.
