Summary

1925, the age of prohibition. A sailor named Cornelius von Zeelinga is on the run from the police, having just evaded arrest whilst trying to smuggle a huge consignment of rum. A few months later, he is back in Jamaica, a wealthy man and the proud owner of a fine new boat. He has a secret passion for Linda Larue, a silent movie diva, and will not miss any of her pictures for all the world. He is so in love with her that he resolves to meet her. Eventually, he tracks her down to Cuba, but it seems at first sight that Linda is not the lovable kind. However, the actress soon warms to Cornelius’s charms and decides to live with him the kind of adventures that she has so far only experienced in her movies. But love and danger go hand-in-hand for Linda, and Cornelius soon has far more trouble than he started with...
