A novel and historical romance set in Cuba in 1958, the year leading to the revolution. Joe Lyons, a young Englishman fresh from National Service, arrives in Havana and falls for a girl who’s involved with the underground opposition. Joe works for the American mob who are running the casinos before joining the rebels and fighting alongside Che Guevara in the mountains. The novel charts the progress of the revolution month by month and is firmly based on fact. The story oozes the rum, sun, sex and salsa that was Cuba on the eve of the ’58 revolution.
