PORT ANGELIQUE

Sabo de Chine is out of jail and back in Port Angelique, back to reclaim his buried treasure. It's up to police commissioner Stanley Fowler to catch him with the loot. However, it seems that everyone on the island knows about this treasure, and they all want a piece of it. There's Bip, the illiterate Yum-Yum boy who wants a taste of the good life; George Kelly, the over-extended port captain; Laird Abbot, a larcenous shrimper with a handy boat; and Canta, the Florida gangster in charge of moving the gold. Into this stewpot of greed and villainy is added Mama Lukee, the local madam with an agenda of her own. Fowler cautiously makes his way through this miasma of crooked intentions, his one goal in life to put Sabo behind bars, this time permanently.
