Synopses & Reviews
John Deal has spent much of his adult life trying to rebuild the Miami construction firm that his late father ruined. When the possibility of a major project in post-normalized Cuba arises, he can't help but be intrigued-only to find that he's been lured to Havana for another, far more dangerous purpose: to help spring an American prisoner from a Castro jail. Deal wants nothing to do with it, until he discovers who it is: a man closer to him than he could possibly have imagined, and the holder of secrets-secrets which more than one group would kill for . . . and soon do.
