Humphrey Bogart as Slate Shannon, owner of a small run down Havana hotel and a boat named the Bold Venture. Lauren Bacall as Sailor Duvall, a smart talking, tender hearted young woman played by Bacall with sultry, sexy, monotones...
This is part of an introduction to a long forgotten radio series designed especially for Bogey and Bacall. Chele and I are big fans of the two 'Bs' and when I sent her one of the tapes we both decided it would make a great RP for LIT.
It's set in the Caribbean in the late 40s. Slate has been a part of the local scene of adventure and intrigue for quite a while, operating the Hotel for income and the Bold Venture for excitement. He skates the fine line of the law more often then not.
He is stunned to receive a letter one Spring morning from Oscar Duvall, a man he owes a great deal to...

"Slate by the time you get this I will be dead old freind. Time and Fortune have been unkind to me of late and I find I must liquidate all my assetts, my life included this very day.
I am sending you my greatest treasure. My daughter. Sailor is an extraordinary young woman Slate. I trust you with her care and upkeep until she is on her own two feet. She's a willfull girl so it shouldn't take long.
If this sounds desperate, it is. Sailor cannot stay here after my death. She must be 'lost' for quite a while.
I know you old freind and I do not ask you to treat her like a child...she is far from that.
Just keep her happy, help her and do not break her heart.
I have an appointment now in Hell. I'm sure we'll meet again.
Oscar...
PS...Sailor will be in Havana on the tenth. She has your address."
