Fidel Castro has overthrown the country’s repressive government. Initially, the people are jubilant, but it doesn’t last. Castro sees enemies in every corner. The innocent are executed by firing squad along with the guilty and the promise of Castro’s new regime soon evaporates. The lovers develop a plan to escape the island by boat to the Florida Keys. Before she can reach the dock where Roberto awaits, Alyssa is detained by the manipulative and despicable Diego Montalvo, Castro’s personal attorney, who’s infatuated with her beauty. Roberto reluctantly leaves without her, vowing that he’ll soon be coming back to rescue her.\nBased upon actual events, the novel has been written for adult readers who enjoy being absorbed into fast-moving stories of love, war, suspense and mystery.
