Descriere magazin:
Based on a true story, this international spy thriller follows a young Cuban turned CIA spy as he fights government corruption during the Cuban revolution. Victor Gomez, a young Cuban exile, was just a teen when the CIA gave him two options: go to prison for dodging his US Army enlistment or join them as an unconventional spy to dismantle Castro\'s regime. Victor wasn\'t supposed to be anything more than a farmer. But when he is suddenly orphaned, one of Cuba\'s most esteemed judges adopts him at the pivotal moment in history when Fidel Castro is overthrowing the old guards of capitalism and anyone who stands in the way of his grip on the island. When Castro raids his adoptive family\'s estate and arrests his father, Victor narrowly escapes by concealing his identity and fleeing to America. Determined to rescue his father and liberate his homeland, Victor is recruited by the CIA to work on covert missions against Castro. In a whirlwind twist of events, he reunites with a childhood crush, whose newfound fame as an actress puts his double life in unimaginable danger. With Cold War tension and nuclear threats looming on the horizon, Victor finds that struggle for power goes far beyond communism versus democracy to the very core of what nations hide. Based on the true story of author Ivan Luiz Hernandez\'s father, Isla Vulnerable dramatizes a first-hand account of one of the most interesting and deceptive eras in US diplomacy--with extensive research ranging from declassified documents, historical archives, and his family\'s own private records. This historical fiction book covers sensational true events, including: CIA covert operations in foreign affairs via militia groups, secret point-of-views and conversations surrounding JFK\'s assassination, the Cuba de ayer of the 1950s and Golden Exile of Cubans immigrating to the US, a vivid history of the real lives affected by the Cuban revolution, and eyewitness accounts of the Cuban missile crisis. With the edge-of-your-seat pacing of Jack Ryan, the wilder-than-fiction CIA cover-ups of Chaos: Charles Manson, the CIA, and the Secret History of the Sixties, and telenova-style high-stakes drama, this book is perfect for fans of political action thrillers, crime dramas, and books about government conspiracy. Based on a true story, Isla Vulnerable is a gripping spy novel filled with equal parts lies and love, all surrounding a secret, deadly role in Operation Mongoose kept quiet by the CIA . . . until now.
