A gripping account of the bloody vendetta between Miami and Havana since Fidel Castro came to power

An incisive and spirited portrait of the twentieth cenutry's wiliest political survivor and his fiefdom, Cuba Confidential is the gripping story of the shattered families and warring personalities that lie at the heart of the forty-three-year standoff between Miami and Havana. With a decade of firsthand access to the crooks, assassins, and politicians who have made US-Cuban history - from Fidel Castro to the family of Robert Vesco to the inner circles of Jeb Bush - Bardach exposes the ruthless tactics on both sides of the conflict, and the devastating human consequences on both shores.
