Approximate location of the Julia Tuttle Hotel where much of Godwin’s 2006 “Queen of the Underworld,” set in June 0f 1959, takes place: “The Miami River, with its drawbridge and boat traffic, was to my left, the hotel’s Olympic-size pool, surrounded by blue-and-white-striped cabanas, gleamed invitingly below, and to the right was a portion of the Miami skyline, including, Tess proudly pointed out, as though she had put it there herself, the top of the Star building, where I would start work tomorrow.”
