Located in Galveston, extending more than 600 feet into the Gulf of Mexico, the Balinese Room played host to the likes of Frank Sinatra, Phil Harris, Alice Faye, the Marx Brothers, and the largest illegal gambling operation on the Gulf Coast. Celebrating the tenth anniversary of VJ Day in 1955, a muggy August evening gets even more uncomfortable when two rival gangsters vying for dominance, make it no secret that the Texas Island is not big enough for both men. When one of the mobster bosses is found outside the building with a bullet in the forehead, World War II veteran and Texas Ranger Captain Clint Dawson has a nightclub full of viable suspects, all with a motive for murder. Big Band music and dancing to the songs of the 40's is the backdrop to Lipstick and Double Cross at The Balinese.
