{"product_id":"mauch-chunk-richard-benyo-9780988698024","title":"Mauch Chunk: A novel of 1968","description":"The once-prosperous town of Mauch Chunk, knocked out of prominence by the demise of King Coal, seemed ready to explode. Then the first corpse was discovered. From a state cop who rebuilds dead steam locomotives to a guy who lived his life out of a science-fiction novel by A.E.van Vogt, from a lawyer who wants to raise ferocious pigs in his backyard to a little girl who stalks the night, from a crusading newspaper editor to a half-dozen professional wrestlers, Mauch Chunk appears to no longer be dead--merely a haven for dead bodies. And what's up with that hit-man from Baltimore and the Mafia widow from Hazleton who owns a chain of bakeries. Mauch Chunk brings together a colorful cast of unlikely characters attempting to keep out of the way of each other and failing spectacularly.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Richard Benyo\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0988698021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780988698024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Specific Publications\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/20\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 312\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.92lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 5.98w x 0.65d","brand":"Richard Benyo","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43995646230783,"sku":"9780988698024","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ef22bff2-e0c5-4282-bfda-bcde2347909d.jpg?v=1683336999","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/mauch-chunk-richard-benyo-9780988698024","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
