Regal Beaumont may be the "hillbilly chef" who switched Locke Metropolis from the desperate community right into a flourishing vice money. But organized crime outsiders are moving-in on Beaumontis grass, so he reaches out for Dett in a higher-risk proceed to preserve his energy no matter what. Add a competing Irish political device, a profoundly established neo-Nazi "party", the nascent black power movement, grass-disputing juvenile gangs, a muck-raking reporter who doubles as a blackmailer, the FBI--a covert observer and periodic participant which might itself be under monitoring-- and Locke Town is approximately as steady as a nitroglycerin truck stalled on the railroad tracks.
