Professor Luke Shannon gets upbraided by a Cuban exile at Seattle University. Thirty years ago, Luke didn’t keep his promise to Ana Sanchez, a high-profile dissident and his former lover. Her uncle was Cuba’s deceased Hero of the Republic, General Arnaldo Ochoa. Luke promised to tell his story to the world. Luke finds out that Ana is still alive but in failing health. In Miami, he catches Cubana Aviacion’s last flight to Havana.

Then COVID-19 hits Cuba in 2020. All bets are off if Luke will prevail. His odyssey takes him through police interrogations, steamy salsa clubs and tropical storms. The Inspector, tipped off by Cuban intelligence, is intent on taking him down. Whom can Luke trust? Startling news slaps him in the face. Now he must escape. Can Luke keep his promise or will he die trying?
