Synopsis:

W E B Griffin published his last Brotherhood of War series novel, The Aviators, in 1988. Yet there was always at least one more story he wanted to tell - and here it is. In November 1964, Cuban revolutionary Che Guevara went to the Congo with two hundred men, intent on making it his first step in taking over Africa and South America. He failed, thanks in large part to the efforts of an intrepid band of Green Berets. Licking his wounds he returned to Cuba to recruit more men and try the same thing in Bolivia. He failed there, too. In fact he died there, and thus, despite his incompetence, became a glorious martyr to the cause. But who was trying to kill him, really? And why was the USA trying to keep him alive? W E B Griffin has some surprises up his sleeve, and as he takes us through the twists and turns of Special Ops he spins a story of devilish cunning and thrilling adventure.
