Book #2 in the Tales from Alcatraz series
Moose seeks Al Capone's help, but favors come with a price.
Moose Flanagan's neighbors are dangerous criminals, and he turns to Al Capone for help. When Capone delivers, Moose finds himself owing a favor to the infamous convict. As Moose navigates life on Alcatraz, he must decide how far he's willing to go to repay Capone. With his friends by his side, Moose faces unexpected challenges and moral dilemmas. Can he balance the demands of a notorious gangster with his own sense of right and wrong? Dive into this thrilling sequel where the stakes are high and the lines between ally and adversary blur.
What do you do when your neighbors are a bunch of hit men, con men, and mad dog murderers? Well, if you’re Moose Flanagan, you ask the most notorious convict of them all, Al Capone, for help. But when that convict comes through for you-and then asks you for a favor in return-suddenly it’s a whole different ball game. Picking up where the Newbery-Honor winning Al Capone Does My Shirts left off, this lively second romp featuring Moose, his friends, and some of Alcatraz’s “finest” is just as satisfying as the first.
