When We Left Cuba

**In 1960s Florida, a young Cuban exile will risk her life--and heart--to take

back her country in this exhilarating historical novel from the author of

_Next Year in Havana_ , a Reese Witherspoon Book Club pick.**

_Beautiful. Daring. Deadly._

The Cuban Revolution took everything from sugar heiress Beatriz Perez--her

family, her people, her country. Recruited by the CIA to infiltrate Fidel

Castro's inner circle and pulled into the dangerous world of espionage,

Beatriz is consumed by her quest for revenge and her desire to reclaim the

life she lost.

As the Cold War swells like a hurricane over the shores of the Florida Strait,

Beatriz is caught between the clash of Cuban American politics and the perils

of a forbidden affair with a powerful man driven by ambitions of his own. When

the ever-changing tides of history threaten everything she has fought for, she

must make a choice between her past and future--but the wrong move could cost

Beatriz everything--not just the island she loves, but also the man who has

stolen her heart...
