The Mucker
Résumé
The Mucker, by Edgar Rice Burroughs, was published between 1914 and 1916. Billy Byrne, a Chicago thug who survives through violence and theft, finds his way aboard a ship bound for further wrongdoing after being shanghaed. The voyage turns dangerous when the crew kidnaps a millionaire’s daughter, and Billy’s brutal outlook is put under pressure as circumstances force him into close proximity with the heiress. Their situation becomes more precarious when they are stranded together in a hostile jungle with headhunters. Facing this environment side by side, Billy and the daughter are driven into an unexpected relationship that tests what Billy thought he was and where he belonged.
