Landmark Status

Landmark Status careens madly through a subtropical tangle of legal action, spirits, spells, kung fu, car wrecks, football, phobias, fetishes, wooden flutes, pet rabbits and vintage aircraft, while the fate of Miamis famed Century Club hangs in the balance. Once a notorious nightspot, the Club just awoke from decades of slumbering decaythanks to a local building boom. Now everybodys scrambling to bury it under a fabulous high-rise.

Lawyer Benjy Bluestone couldnt care less, but a client owns the Club and seeks his help. It gets easier to say yes when he learns that beautiful broker Delia Torres is involved, even though she represents a developer whos furious to find the Clubs been optioned to a rival. Benjy and Delia soon discover her client will stop at nothing to turn that option into something so ugly the tide wont take it out. Racing the clock, they join forces on the road to Opa-locka, where a violent confrontation threatens to blow the deal sky high.

Move over, Carl Hiaasen! This brilliantly funny romp through the `real Miami will have you howling with laughter and booking your trip to South Beach. Youre gonna love it!
