Abysmal Brute

Abysmal Brute

by Jack London

In the rugged terrain of Northern California, amidst the towering redwoods and untamed wilderness, a young man named Pat Glendon emerges as an extraordinary physical specimen. Blessed with raw power and an unbreakable spirit, Pat possesses an unmatched athleticism that draws the attention of his father, a former heavyweight prizefighter. Recognizing his son's innate talent, the elder Glendon decides to guide Pat on a perilous journey into the ruthless world of professional boxing. As Pat embarks on his pugilistic odyssey, he finds himself entangled in a web of corruption and brutality that threatens to extinguish his innocence and shatter his dreams. Yet, amidst the darkness, a glimmer of hope emerges in the form of a young woman named Helen Sterling, whose unwavering belief in Pat's goodness becomes a beacon of light in the darkest corners of his tumultuous life.
