Knowing many of the places where this story takes place made this an interesting read for me. George Rowe makes himself out to be one of the baddest boys in town, which no doubt he was, but a little bit of that goes a long way and I got tired of hearing about it. Other than that I enjoyed the book quite a bit.

This book was interesting and informative. The writing was how I would expect Mr. Rowe to speak - very coarse, a bit hokey but told in a voice that sounds authentic. There were times (particularly in the beginning of the book) when I felt that I was listening to Sam Neill's character from Tombstone (Virgil Earp) telling his brother (Wyatt Earp) "I just can't live in this town without helping these people"; a tad too aw shucks for me but if that was truly Rowe's motivation for doing what he did then kudos to him. I don't throw the word hero around so I won't say that Rowe was a hero for risking his life the way that he did but I will say it did take courage. I hope that he has a good life wherever he may be. ARC from the publisher.… (plus d'informations)

Didn't quite know what to expect from the title of this book and the verbage on the back. First it is "R" rated for Language, Sex and Violence.
My Mom used to live in Fresno CA, now I have the feeling that I was sharing the road with these people. One never knows, and Mr Rowe doesn't pull any punches, he says it just like it is!
You wonder why there are so many problems with people today, well look at these people who are raising them. The drug use is so rampant that I wanted to go and get that poor 2 year old. George is the bad guy, turn good guy? Well kind of!
We ride along with these misfits, and low lives and they really made me sick! The disregard for human life is so terrible, don't look at someone wrong. When one of George's friends, a new father to be, ends up missing forever. He finally decides he want to help clean up Hemet CA.
He enters into a very dangerous world of infiltrating the Vagos Motorcycle Gang. Being a snitch is a perilous position, but he is finally willing to put his life on the line.
Will George ever make it out alive? Does he ever clear his name with the gang and get out of the probation period? Let me say this is a good mystery, and unfortunately very true. So scary!! Once you start, there is no putting this read down!

I received this book from the Publisher Simon & Schuster, and was not required to give a positive review.
