    About this ebook

    Neal McGrath is not a spy. He's a university professor visiting Havana to research a book. Before he left the States, though, an old colleague from the CIA pressured him for a favor--get in touch with Elena Rodriguez, a beautiful and mysterious woman from McGrath's past. But one meeting with Elena is enough to trap Neal in a life-and-death game of international conspiracy. Elena now works for Cuba's top-secret intelligence agency, the Ministry of Interior, and the information she possesses can sway governments--or get her killed. Neal offers to help her any way he can, all the while struggling to make sense of events that draw him and Elena ever deeper into Cuba's cutthroat world of power and lies, where only one rule is clear: Survive any way you can.

    Raymond Duncan

    Raymond Duncan dropped out of college at 19, hitchhiked from Riverside, California, to NYC, and boarded a ship for Europe. This adventure crystallized his interest in world politics, and he returned to the University of California, Riverside, to earn a BA in Political Science. Drafted out of graduate school, the U.S. Army trained him in counter-intelligence and sent him to Stuttgart, Germany. Not a bad thing, because in Paris he met his future wife. With a Ph.D. in International Relations from the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy, he taught at Boston University, the Naval War College in Newport, RI and SUNY-College at Brockport—and was a Scholar-in-Residence at the C.I.A. His many non-fiction publications include books and articles on the former Soviet Union, Third World, Latin America, Cuba and Mexico. His novels draw from true events, on-site research and extensive interviews. When not writing, he engages in community service and local politics.
