This sequel to The Boy Who Said No continues the true saga of Frank Mederos, who escaped from Castro's Cuba at the height of the Cold War in the 1960s. He wants to begin a new life in the United States with the love of his life, Magda, who had fled earlier with her family. As a soldier in Cuba, Frank had developed knowledge of the island's missile systems, thus he is invited to work with the CIA. He declines but tells the agency all he knows about Cuba's defenses. Meanwhile, Castro's government sends Frank's nemesis from the first novel, the disgraced Lieutenant Pino, to eliminate him.
VERDICT This novel is not only a story about a deadly enemy only a few miles from our shores but also a testimonial to what lengths people will go to become free. Unfortunately, the author spends too much time on Frank's personal adjustment to America, and, thus, the novel lacks excitement and drama. Purchase for demand.
