A graphic novel by a lifelong motorcycle club member, inspired
by the secrets of one percenters.
Phil Cross has been a Hells Angel for over 40 years. In the
world of outlaw motorcycle clubs, there are many stories that can't
be told, for a variety of reasons, but they have spurred Phil's
imagination to create a fictional story inspired by real
events.
One-percenter antiheroes populate these pagesa tougher and
wilder than any character ever played by Dennis Hopper, Peter
Fonda, or Marlon Brando. The guys in the tales Phil spins might
remind you of Easy Rider and The Wild One, but the hard glint in
their eyes proves that they are based on the real deal.
Illustrator Ronn Sutton provides stunning visuals to bring
Phil's stories to life. These bikers aren't going to ride off into
the sunset any time soon."

'A masterpiece of the genre' If you mess with the Glass family,
don't expect to live to tell the tale... What was meant to be a
straightforward jewellery heist goes horribly wrong, and the
thieves are forced to take a hostage to make their escape. But when
they discover their prisoner is the infamous Nina Glass - one of
the bosses of the most dangerous criminal dynasty in London - they
soon realise they have made a terrible mistake. Greed wins out over
good sense and the gang decide to make the best of a bad situation.
They send Luke Glass a ransom note, but they're messing with the
wrong people. The Glass family have other problems. The crooked cop
they have on their payroll - DCI Oliver Stanford - makes an
unwelcome discovery. The insider they had all presumed dead, may in
fact have survived, and still be feeding information to the police.
Under attack from all sides, and desperate to save his sister, Luke
has the reputation and survival of the Glass family in his hands -
is this the end of their empire? Three people can keep a secret -
if two of them are dead... Pacey, explosive and unforgettable,

A lost novel from the golden age of crime, published for the very
first time. It happened on a dark and misty night; the night of the
ball at The Prince's Hall, Fordings. Abuzz with rumours surrounding
the disappearance of Rosemary Reeve on the eve of last year's ball,
the date proves ill-fated again when two homebound partygoers, Nick
and Dilys, come to a swerving halt before a corpse on the road.
Arriving at the scene to the news that Nick has been attacked after
telephoning for the police, Inspector Turner suspects there may be
more to the case than deadly accident. It's not long before Waring
of the local C.I.D. is drawn into the investigation, faced with the
task of unravelling an increasingly tangled knot of misleading
alibis and deep-rooted local grievances. Written in the last years
of the author's life, this previously unpublished novel is a
tribute to Lorac's enduring skill for constructing an ingenious
puzzle, replete with memorable characters and gripping detective
work. This edition also includes an introduction by the CWA Diamond
Dagger Award-winning author Martin Edwards.
