Havana highwire
(Book)

"World-weary American Henry Gore was born in the cold Midwest. But a lucky connection – and a hundred peso bribe – scores him a license to operate as a private investigator in Havana, a place where he can finally get warm. Soon, he’s trailing after cheating husbands to finance his permanent vacation in the land of sun, cigars and compliant se�oritas. But when he snaps the wrong man’s photo at a fancy casino, he receives a fist in the face for his troubles – and a dark warning from the Mob. Private dicks are bad for business. If he carries on working, his license will be permanently revoked. Capisci? No work means no money. No way to eat. No way to pay the rent. Desperate to make ends meet, Henry grabs an offer of work from Fulgencio Batista’s military regime with both hands – setting in motion a chain of events with dark and deadly consequences." --publisher's website.
