Den Laurey, the leader of one of the country's most violent biker gangs, should have been behind bars. But thanks to a daring escape on the L.A. freeway, several U.S. marshals are dead and Laurey is riding free. Tim Rackley, back on the Service's warrant squad, is in hot pursuit of the outlaw and his ruthless gang-with a media whirlwind and the entire Los Angeles law enforcement community dogging him. Tim's search leads him into a dark world of deception, of criminals and undercover cops, and drugs and mutilation. With the stakes rising, Tim must unravel a horrifying secret and confront a deadly terror that reaches from the back alleys of Mexico to the poppy fields of Afghanistan…and threatens to explode on the dark streets of L.A.
