Nicholas Anthony Parisi

Born in West Springfield, Massachusetts, Nick grew up surrounded by the real-life legends of organized crime. He didn’t just study “The Families,” he knew them. The names in his books aren’t just subjects; they were family, friends, rivals, and mentors.

After relocating to California, Nick took a hard turn into the outlaw world, patching into one of the most notorious 1% motorcycle clubs in the nation. He didn’t just ride, he climbed, eventually becoming a national officer and living the life most true crime writers only imagine.

Today, when he’s not at the keyboard peeling back the layers of North America’s criminal underworld, you’ll find him on a golf course, fly fishing remote rivers, playing cards at a poker table, or chasing new stories

John "Red" Shea

John "Red" Shea, 40, was a top lieutenant in the South Boston Irish mob run, led by James "Whitey" Bulger. An ice–cold enforcer with a red–hot temper, Shea was a legend among his peers in the 1990s South Boston, as much as John Gotti, Bugsy Siegel, and Al Capone were in their time and place.

From the age of thirteen, when he started robbing delivery trucks, to the age of twenty–seven, when he began serving a twelve–year federal sentence for drug trafficking, Shea was a portrait in American crime – a bantam–weight, red–headed terror, brutal with his fists and deadly with a lead pipe, a baseball bat, or a knife. At fifteen he was selling marijuana . At seventeen he was handling Bulger's cocaine. At eighteen he was loan sharking and laundering
