In 1992, at age 18, Nick Donkersloot joined the 1%ers, the same motorcycle gang his beloved father belonged to. Telling himself he needed to stay close to his father to protect him, Nick partied and did drugs. Over the course of the next thirteen years he became addicted, divorced, and grew increasingly disillusioned with the direction his life had taken. Then his father died in his arms on the side of a road after being hit by a drunk driver, and Nick's life went into a tailspin. On the outs with his former brothers, Nick finds himself in a federal courtroom, wondering if his future will have him on a motorcycle or in prison. And his journey continues...
