The story is told in first-person by a BIKER who eventually ends up doing dirty work for the Canadian Calabrian mafia. The first half of the book reminds us what a violent, criminal menace the bikers were in the 70's (I love that decade). From the barroom brawls, arson, robberies, extortion, and yes, murder---Cecil Kirby provides some authentic insight into Canada and its biker gangs. Then he goes on to describe how the mob used him to do some of the aforementioned crimes. You never for a moment doubt the narrator's honesty or viciousness but you do thank him for one hell of a story!
