Publisher's Synopsis
Just before Popeye Rush, the president of a one-percenter outlaw motorcycle club (the Iron Raiders) dies in sinister circumstances at his home in Santa Paula, California, young Jim Deere, or Halfbreed as the brotherhood calls him, is given a task to track down Popeye's estranged daughter, and deliver her the news of his death, as well as mysterious instructions to her inheritance. But Jim soon becomes only too aware that the rest of the Iron Raiders want the young woman's birthright money for themselves, and are willing to do anything to get it. Jim's bravery, integrity and morals are tested to the full as he strives to break away from his outlaw ways, searches for a better life, rediscovers his Native American roots, and learns to put the safety of another before is own. With its swift-moving plot, short chapters, limited vocabulary and memorable characters, this tale of modern day desperadoes, buried treasure, treachery, heroism, romance and motorcycles, will open the reader's imagination to the thrill of adventure, and can be enjoyed by both children and simple folk alike.
