About this audiobook
High in the wild Asturian mountains, a remote calamine mine tests more than iron and stone. Sent to recover his health—and branded an “idle young dog”—young Jim Cayley battles a stubborn stutter and a worse reputation. When Little Toro, a sharp-eyed Cuban orphan, whispers of sabotage timed for closing hour, Jim seizes his chance to prove himself. As ore buckets swing over an eight-hundred-foot drop and tensions among the blue-jacketed crew ignite, a cut cable and a deadly plunge expose the ringleaders’ scheme and force a reckoning. Jason Michael Mann’s vivid narration captures the grit of the workings, the peril of the precipice, and the heart of a boy becoming a man. A taut, atmospheric adventure of courage, conscience, and earned respect—perfect for fans of classic action tales, frontier industry stories, and tightly wound short fiction set far from home.
