Ship Breaker: Ship Breaker
Autor Paolo Bacigalupien Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 apr 2012
BUT LOYALTY IS SCARCER.
Nailer's time is running out. He's getting too big for his work - stripping copper wire from old oil tankers - and once he's off th crew he's on his own, stuck in a shack on the beach with no food, no money and no way of earning his keep.
He has one last chance. The thing all crew members dream about, a lucky strike, has hit in the shape of a clipper ship beached during the last hurricane. If he can hold off the rest of the scavengers long enough to get the oil out, he might just have a future.
But oil's not the only thing on the ship. And what Nailer finds is going to change his life for ever.
