Many years ago the city was contrained within what was known as the Royalty, a community "crowded with buildings and abominably filthy" which lay behind the shining new buildings and streets of the new city. It is this area that lies at the heart of the book, peopled with characters such as Buttermil Benzie, Pie Bob, Feel Willie, Ree Tappie and Sawdust Willie.
