“A good ol’ Western, Bad Guys vs Good Guys,

with high tech substituting for six-shooters.”

The Snake Valley Okies are in a water war with the City of Las Vegas. The battles include the bombing of a Las Vegas Water Authority car, the occupation of a Las Vegas golf course, and a naval confrontation on Lake Mead, the murder of a Las Vegas water department geologist and the theft of millions of gallons of water from Las Vegas’s underground reservoir.

The water war pits the Snake Valley Okies against the Lounge Lizards, two Las Vegas cops. The Okies’ intent is to stop the 285-mile pipeline from Las Vegas to the Snake Valley Aquifer, an actual case. The Lounge Lizards set out to remove any Okie standing in there way—using whatever means necessary.
