Under and Alone

In 1998, veteran ATF agent William Queen embarked on the most extensive undercover operation inside an outlaw motorcycle gang in American history. For 28 months, Queen, operating as "Billy St. John," infiltrated the notoriously dangerous Mongols, becoming a fully patched-in member and eventually their treasurer. This unprecedented access offered a firsthand look at their criminal enterprise, forcing Queen to participate in drug deals, arms trafficking, and brutal acts of violence. Isolated from his former life, Queen grappled with a blurring identity, experiencing both the Mongols' ruthless criminality and their unexpected camaraderie. He knew the men who loved "Billy St. John" would not hesitate to murder "Billy Queen." This raw account details Queen's harrowing journey, from surviving a knife-point drug test to deadly clashes with rival gangs, revealing the ultimate sacrifice an agent makes to bring down a violent underworld.
