Killgloom Park

Killgloom Park, written by Neil Boyton, S.J., is a children's adventure novel set in the 1930s at a fictional amusement park in Coney Island, New York. The story follows Angelo Daily and his friends as they navigate a summer filled with excitement, including a runaway tiger and a nighttime escapade on a ferris wheel. Boyton, a Jesuit priest and Scout Chaplain, drew from his experiences in amusement parks and his involvement with the Boy Scouts to create this engaging narrative. This book serves as a sequel to 'On the Sands of Coney,' although prior knowledge of the first book is not necessary for enjoyment.
