Description:     

The Tibbetts have fond memories of the newly independent Caribbean nation of Tampica, but the island may have exchanged colonial rule for another set of shackles. The government is corrupt, and Tampica is now a haven for drug smugglers. Henry investigates, and in the process severely tests all assumptions about this "innocent" tropical paradise.

"This is the excellent foppery of the world, that, when we are sick in fortune, often the surfeit of our own behaviour, we make guilty of our disasters the sun, the moon, and the stars; as if we were villains by necessity, fools by heavenly compulsion, knaves, thieves, and treachers by spherical predominance, drunkards, liars, and adulterers by an enforced obedience of planetary influence; and all that we are evil in, by a divine thrusting on: an admirable evasion of whore-master man, to lay his goatish disposition to the charge of a star!" King Lear (Edmund) Act I, scene ii
