Vanderbilts, Goulds, Rockefellers, and other members of elite society vacationed there, enjoying the finest aspects of Southern hospitality that money could buy and importing the rest from New York. Indeed, the money was good: the club's one hundred members controlled one sixth of the nation's wealth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen one of the club's members is shot to death on the island, his fellow captains of industry anxiously conclude it was as a hunting accident.
