Unwittingly, Lopez finds himself up against the Sinaloa Cartel, the Take Back Our Streets movement, and the Devil on Canyon Road.
The building is being rented by Ricardo Aragon, a Mexican painter who, Lopez discovers, is on the run from the Sinaloa Cartel of Mexico.
Lopez decides to stalk the so-called beast and pursues it to an old Forest Service building on Upper Canyon Road.
Meanwhile, sightings of a red-faced beast continue on Canyon Road.
Lopez discovers troubling information about the leaders of the movement, information that links them to the murders.
The case quickly becomes more complicated--and dangerous--when a violent anti-immigrant movement called Take Back Our Streets wants to use the murders as a pretext to ban immigrants and homeless people from the streets of the city.
When a second homeless man is murdered, Lopez decides to investigate.
Lopez is dubious, but rumors continue to spread as more Santa Feans see a red-faced beast in the area.
