About This Book

Stalwart investigative reporter Nathan Necessary informs the corrupt, savagely brutal mayor of aptly named Striptown (not far from Texarkana) that he's going to print the story of racist threats recklessly uttered in his cups by the swaggering mayor. In a recent episode of racial violence, five have died; now three more, possibly four, have been killed. The battle lines are drawn, the forces of "law and order" stand at the ready, guns loaded. Will the blacks, en route to a mass demonstration, be massacred, as the rednecks predict?
