Escape into another Time and Place: into the Era of Rum-Runners, Flappers, and Bathtub Gin. Soft focus your eyes back to 1929, don a fedora and wide tie, and tell the bartender you want a Marguarita. Prohibition has been in effect for nine years, and bathtub gin is a national craze. The stock market is booming. Lovers sway to the music of the ship’s orchestra. International spies hold forbidden rendezvous beneath the palm trees on the beach. You are cordially invited to visit the most popular dive in Puerto Benito, where flappers rub shoulders with señorita, banditos survey their prey, and gangsters mix with caballeros. Money talks -- and sometimes it whispers "murder."
