Publisher's Summary

When the ruler of Cuba stepped down in 2018, the Cuban people led by Javier Hernandez started a revolution. Javier's beloved wife was publicly assassinated by an unidentified sniper while peacefully protesting. Her death led to worldwide outrage and ultimately the United States backing the revolution. With the help of the US military, the rebels were successful.

The Cuban people were led to believe that the US military would only occupy Cuba for a one year reconstruction period. Several years have now passed, and the US military presence has increased to the point of martial law. It now appears that Cuba traded one oppressive ruler for another, and the Cuban people are growing restless for the freedom they believe they deserve. Javier begins to construct the makings of a second revolution to oust the United States military and truly free Cuba)

Meanwhile in the United States, our heroine, the beautiful first generation, Cuban-American, Chevita Diaz, is an American news reporter that begins to question the purpose of the United States military in Cuba, and what it may mean for the upcoming 2026 Presidential election. Chevita observes that the United States government is becoming more and more powerful, and she is concerned about the future of her country)
