"This time, Toogy has gone too far...violating Andre's young niece " It was the mid '50's and Captain Toogy Beaudeau, a powerful and imposing lawman, wields his unchallenged authority over the small Louisiana bayou town of Ellington. Left mostly on his own by a reluctant and absentee sheriff, Captain Beaudeau runs Ellington as if he owns it. As far as he is concerned, he can do no wrong. Using his imposing physical appearance and his unchallenged professional authority, he often satisfies his insatiable craving for rough, indiscriminate sex with any woman he chooses whenever and wherever he pleases; in bar rooms, in bedrooms and even in his patrol car. Captain Beaudeau intimidates most of Ellington's townspeople in the name of the law..... except....those up on the Turnpike Road. The people on the turnpike have a motivated and capable protector, a "high yella" Creole named Andre Dejoie. Toogy has always been confronted by Andre even when they were growing up in the small town. He now considers Andre a threat to his control and has a plan to catch Andre committing a crime so he could lock him away permanently. Andre Dejoie, however, is not to be taken lightly. He had challenged Toogy before. This time, Toogy has gone too far .... violating Andres young niece. Andre had plans of his own for Toogy and his plan is about to become reality....in the foreboding darkness of the Bonfouca Bayou.
