An American novel of the 1920s and 1930s flavored with adventure and real history. Flora, village-born on a remote Lake Michigan shore, matures into a lithe beauty, over 6 feet tall. At 19, she hitch-hikes to Chicago and prospers as a witty barmaid in Golden's speakeasy - until forced to hide when stacks of cash disappear.Assisted by hometown pals, Grover and Arie, Flora fights to revive her town's economy with tainted money, even though the Feds threaten to wreck her grand plan.Plot twisters: a 'Tin Goose' Tri-motor, one of the world's largest planes in 1931, flown by reformed bootleggers to start a Caribbean airline, a twice-stolen Duesenberg limo, and a 65-foot former lighthouse on the lake, used as a treasure vault.
