The true story of forty years inside one of Australia's first outlaw motorcycle clubs as told by its one-time president. With previously unrevealed insights into the outlaw world of extreme violence, drugs, corruption, sex, treachery and retribution. All names have been changed, and identities and events obscured. This is the only way the story could be told. 'this story is a true account of the birth of outlaw motorcycle clubs in Australia. there was no template for us, it just evolved. It shows our simple creed: loyalty to the club and respect for your brothers.' David Spiteri was a founding member and long-time President of one of Australia's first outlaw motorcycle clubs from its inception in the early 1960s through to the early 2000s. He has been uniquely placed to witness the clubs develop from loose affiliations of riders to the well structured and well connected groups we see today, with links to police, politicians and lawyers. In this never-before-told inside story, Spiteri puts himself at risk to reveal everything from the drug trafficking which funds the clubs' operations to the extreme violence that continues to make them infamous. For the first time, the true extent of the clubs' corruption will be exposed, and the treachery and subsequent retribution enforced by their own brand of law known as 'the code' is brought to light. A truly shocking and compelling look at a fascinating subculture.

My whole life, I knew I was different. Hell, everyone did. I never came out as a gay man to my family, but I didn’t have to. They knew and didn’t accept it. And they never missed an opportunity to shove their religion in my face or tell me what a sinner I was. I took off when I was sixteen and lived on the streets of Dallas, Texas, for a while before the local chapter of Viper’s Venom took me in. Years later, after being personally appointed to the President position of my chapter by the President of the entire crew himself, I couldn’t help but think about how it was the biggest middle finger I could give my parents. The only thing I thought was worth loving was my club. They took a chance on me. I’d lay my life down for them. But then, a brown-haired, doe-eyed angel in disguise crashes into my world and burns all of my walls to the ground. Drake, despite him being twenty years my junior, quickly becomes my entire world. I can’t imagine my heart beating without him by my side. I should really know better, though. Men like me don’t have happily ever afters. So, I should have seen it coming when my darkness envelops the man who owns my soul…
