Attorney Willa Janssons mother has never balked at breaking the law,
especially not for a good cause. So when Willa learns her mother has flouted federal
regulations and gone off to Cuba, she figures its just a harmless pilgrimage to lefty
Graceland. But when her mother doesnt return with the rest of her peacenik tour group,
Willa fears the feds might consider the trip trading with the enemywith a penalty of
ten years in prison and a $100,000 fine. Worse, her mothers bleeding heart may finally
have gotten her into more trouble than she can get herself out of.
In Lia Materas Havana Twist, Willa risks her career and passport by rushing to Cuba to
retrace her mothers steps. But she finds that nothing there is quite as it seems. Following
clues to neighborhoods tourists never see, through secret tunnels beneath the street, and
into the finest luxury hotels, Willa is manipulated, misled, and nearly arrested. And in the
meantime, newfound reporter friendsor are they CIA agents?disappear as suddenly
and inexplicably as her mother did.
Soon the U.S. State Department, the Cuban Interior Ministry, and Willas old flame, San
Francisco Homicide Lieutenant Don Surgelato, get into the act. But politics and police work
are a poor substitute for those things only a daughter would know. So, in a deadly game of cat and mouse, Willa follows her mothers trail from Havana to Mexico City, from California back to Havana. . . all the while keeping barely one step ahead of two angry governments and at least one ruthless killer.
Anna Fields has found her 1 home behind the microphone after beginning her career on the stage in Washington, D.C. She has garnered several AudioFile Earphones Awards and won the coveted Audie Award in 2004.
