From the back cover:
Set in New York - the New York which Harold Robbins knows so well.
It tells the story of a man born into a respectable family but who is gradually driven downwards into the world of crime, racketeering and miserable poverty.
Danny Fisher was a boxer - a sensational amateur and a potential champion. A man who could have been one of the great ones. But he didn't go straight. He wasn't allowed to go straight. And slowly he became involved with the very gangsters and racketeers who were responsible for ruining his career.
An old ex-library paperback in nice condition. Reserved to be sent out to retromonkey in the UK, who has this book on her Wish List.
Update (January 29): in the mail, happy trails!
