It’s the height of the Cuban Missile Crisis and a boat containing a fleet of London buses lies mysteriously at the bottom of the Thames...
London, 1962. Toni Corrales is on a secret mission to ‘liberate’ a dozen buses from under the noses of the British intelligence services. He soon acquaints himself with the capital’s hot spots but then a murder in the Holloway Road followed by fatal bus accident in Chiswick mean the Cold War has hit the streets of London. With a psychotic CIA marksman on his tail, not forgetting the attentions of a gorgeous Aquascutum model, the Cuban’s seemingly straightforward assignment looks doomed. Can our reluctant hero deliver Castro’s red buses and keep his revolutionary principles in tact? CASTRO CAN WAIT is based on a true story.
