"In the remote Bocas del Toro, Panama, William Dathan Holbert, aka 'Wild Bill,' is awaiting trial for the murder of five fellow American ex-patriots. Holbert's first victims were the Brown family, who lived on a remote island in the area's Darklands. There, Holbert turned their home into the 'Jolly Roger Social Club,' using drink- and drug-fueled parties to get to know other ex-pats ...
