"The Copper Pit" is a dramatic tale with very unlikely results of the President's and Congress's decision to banish outlawed street gangs to an abandoned copper mine in America's mid-west. A strange new underground world evolves which includes daring escapes, changed lives, justice, reformation, and even love. You will meet Mongo, a lifer who emerges as the leader of the motley group of prisoners, Peewee, and Freeway, brave fugitives with opportunities to change everything, and Friendly, a surprising woman who ultimately transforms the way of life in "The Pit."
