Inhaltsangabe:

The engrossing inside story of the life and mysterious death of a Hells Angels informant

Dany Kane was a mass of contradictions: Hells Angels hit man and police informant, family man and patron of gay personal ads, steroid-crazed thug and charming joker. He was also the “super source” for the RCMP in their efforts to end one of North America's bloodiest gang wars ever, the battle to control the illegal drug business in Quebec and beyond.

Kane's dangerous double life led to the spectacular “Springtime 2001” busts in which police rounded up some 120 gang members and associates on murder and drug charges. But by then Kane was dead, the victim of a highly questionable suicide, mere weeks before he was to receive a huge payout and a new identity-shortly after he had gone from major police asset to enormous liability.

Hell's Witness chronicles the deadly acts of terror, the odious villains, and the dubious heroes of the Quebec biker war through a compelling and intimate portrait of a small-town hood with big ambition.
