Book Synopsis: In 1959, communist Fidel Castro assumed power of the island-nation of Cuba, but not before three of Havana’s largest casino owners pooled resources to hide their fortunes on the American base. Nearly forty years later, Marine Captain Adam Claiborne and his wife Audrey arrive in Guantanamo Bay for a two-year tour of duty, completely unaware of its strangely eclectic society and turbulent past. Drug smuggling, tyrannical commanding officers, unscrupulous chaplains, and a hedonistic sub-culture relentlessly challenge their faith in God, country and each other. From a military scandal to a forty-year old mystery, Adam and Audrey uncover Guantanamo Bay’s best kept secrets.
