Based on the life of an actual 18th-century London criminal, this Newgate novel follows young Jack Sheppard from infancy through his fate as a notorious thief. Manipulated by the vicious thief-catcher Jonathan Wild—who destroyed his father—Sheppard becomes infamous for his daring prison escapes and robberies. The tale weaves together crime, corruption, and the question of whether redemption is possible for a man caught in London's brutal underworld. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
