The Scouring of the Shire is the eighth chapter of the second book of The Return of the King, recounting all the events of the Scouring of the Shire.
Plot
Frodo, Sam, Merry, and Pippin arrive in the Shire to find that things are not as they once were when they left. The Shire was now run by Sharkey based at Bag End, who with Lotho's help had taken over with his band of Ruffian Men. The four hobbits collect as many allies as they can and defeat his army of Ruffians at the Battle of Bywater. The Hobbits then confront "Sharkey" and the lowly Gríma Wormtongue at Bag End, who both meet their demise.
