Jerry Bines has been acquitted of the murder of Buddy Savoie and comes back home. His actions are often misunderstood by others - those who fear him but are drawn to the power they sense in him. Joe and Rita Walsh have died; Adele and Ralphie Pillar's daughter is being raised by someone else; Nevin White is being kept away from his daughter, Hadley, because of his ex-wife Vera's suspicions about him; Vera, college educated, is writing a book; and Ralphie finds himself, in spite of Adele's warnings, in an uneasy friendship with Jerry Bines. When Bines learns that Gary Percy Rils has escaped from prison, he has good reason to fear for his own safety and that of others. Bines' attempt to protect his family from Rils leads to the novel's dramatic climax.
