Royal Flush by Shelley Singer (SYKM), 6th in her Jake Samson & Rosie Vicente series, which for once she doesn't call a cozy in the blurb, but it's still listed there in the Amazon categories. YMMV, of course. Originally out from Perseverance Press/John Daniel in 1998.

Laid-back, unlicensed PI Jake Samson is understandably nervous about infiltrating a local Marin County neo-Nazi group called the Aryan Command. After all, he is Jewish. But when the doe-eyed teenage goddaughter of his oldest friend begs him to help her boyfriend--harebrained, reformed skinhead Royal Subic--Jake finds he can't "just say no." Turns out Royal, who's too terrified to defect, is not only disenchanted with his recent brush with right-wing extremism (which includes a regrettable tattoo), he's afraid for his life--and he has the murder of a Command member-turned-defector to point to for proof. But as Jake investigates exactly what the kid's gotten himself into, a complex conspiracy begins to unfold, including a plan to assassinate an outspoken talk-show host, a complicated web of local police and governmental infiltrators (some of them dirty themselves), and a possible international connection.

Jake turns to longtime friend, former tenant, and current boss Rosie Vicente (much has changed since their last outing), and the two embark on an adventure full of loathsome racists, menacing wannabes, and dangerous megalomaniacs amidst the Bay area's brooding biker bar scene.
