nefarious \nuh-FAIR-ee-uhs\, adjective:
Wicked in the extreme; iniquitous.
Despite involvement in protection, narcotics, strong-arm debt collecting, strikebreaking, and blackmail, among other nefarious activities, all of them professed to be a cut above mobsters in other lands.
-- Robert Whiting, Tokyo Underworld
