    Cuba — where it all began. 
    Getting captured and shot by Cuban intelligence in Nicaragua isn’t slowing John Carpenter down. The black operative and his partner Marcela have been in more close calls than they can count, but this time is different. This time they are striking back. They have finally met their handler, Mike Morrandon, who has emerged from the shadows and they’re ready to settle the score. 
    Mike Morrandon is on the run from his own employers at the CIA after uncovering insidious information from a questionable source, suggesting a Cuban mole in the CIA. But no one will listen, or they’re covering it up. Either way, Mike isn’t sure he can trust his own agents. But he needs them to go after Antonio Romero: the mysterious man who seems to be behind manipulations in American politics. A man with friends in high places. His only mistake? He made an enemy of John Carpenter. 
    John is after the root cause of it all, and only one place has the answers: Cuba. But is the island willing to give up its secrets? With old enemies and new allies, everything has led up to this moment. 
    It ends now. 
    Third book in the John Carpenter Trilogy!
