About this listen

High summer in Cuba, 1953, and Havana gleams with possibility. Flush with booming casinos, sex and drugs, Havana is a lucrative paradise for everyone from the Mafia, Domino Sugar, and United Fruit to pimps, porn-makers, and anyone looking to grab a piece of the action - including the Cuban government, which naturally honors the interests of its old ally, Uncle Sam.

Of course, where there's paradise, trouble can't be far behind. Trouble, in this case, makes its entrance in the terrifically charismatic and silver-tongued form of a young revolutionary named Fidel Castro. The Caribbean is fast becoming a strategic Cold War hub, and Soviet intelligence has taken Castro under its wing. The CIA's response is to send the one man capable of eliminating Castro: the legendary gunfighter and ex-Marine hero Earl Swagger, who proved his lethal talent in the national bestsellers Hot Springs and Pale Horse Coming.

In Cuba, Earl finds himself up to his neck in treacherous ambiguity where the old rules about honor and duty don't apply, and where Earl's target seems to have more guts and good luck than anyone else in Cuba.

Narrator change is tough.

The narrator has been changed in this book from the previous entries.
It's not that the narrator is bad, just delivers the characters so differently. I much prefered the original. Excited the original is back for the new release this January.
Story was good, not great. Doesn't hold up to the others. Feels more like a spin off than a continuation of Earl's jouney.

New Sheriff in Town

Stephen has a knack for creating classic American heroes and the dastardly villains to go up against them. William is the man with a thousand voices and personalities. It's like watching a movie in your mind.
