The Filthy Few

Whether it’s cops or criminals, every organization has its filthy few . . . No longer on the force, Karen Grant is now working as a journalist—and one of her two sources has just been murdered in what police have written off as a drug deal gone bad. When Grant and a witness become hunted themselves, she can think of only one person to turn to: her ex-partner, disgraced Toronto detective Steve Nastos. With help from his friend, lawyer Kevin Carscadden, Nastos is about to confront two ambitious rookie cops and some nasty outlaw bikers who have one thing in common: they’ll do anything to serve their own interests . . .

Cade, president of the Iron Disciples Motorcycle Club, a hardened badass, and one of the Filthy Few-members who've sold their souls and demonstrated the highest act of loyalty...killing for their club. The Disciples are local legends, true one percenters-the few who don't just live on the fringe of society but operate far from it. Ultra successful financial advisor Morgan Swift knows nothing about THE LIFE until she steps off the curb into the path of Cade's Harley... She ends up in his apartment, trusting a murderer to heal her wounds...two people from completely different worlds, they aren't meant to be together, they can't possibly coexist. Being in close proximity to such a raw, alpha like Cade has Morgan's body betraying her at every turn...never before has a man made her feel this alive, this frightened, this...wet. How can Cade trust the civilian woman he is falling for when she demands full disclosure? How can he explain to her the meaning of the Filthy Few patch on his chest without her equating him to nothing more than a serial killer? In the face of impossible danger Cade is forced to make a deal with the devil, and it's a decision Morgan will never understand.

This book examines the reported criminal behavior of the entire spectrum of 1% biker clubs and members. It identifies the clubs whose members have been involved in criminal behavior and classifies their behaviors as individual, group, or club- sponsored/condoned behavior. While other books examine the criminal exploits of one or more of what are called the "Big Five" biker clubs because of their size and sophistication, or the sensational crimes of lesser known 1% biker clubs or club members, this book pays attention to the criminal activities of individuals, groups and chapters of other clubs as well. The book is based on journalistic accounts and autobiographies of former and present members of biker clubs, academic/scholarly works, law enforcement/government reports, articles from newspapers and biker web sites, and a content analysis of federal and state court cases regarding bikers and motorcycle clubs. Text enhanced with numerous photos and figures.
