Through the 1980s and 1990s, violent anti-Castro groups based in
Florida carried out hundreds of military attacks on Cuba, bombing
hotels and shooting up Cuban beaches with machine guns. The Cuban
government struck back with the Wasp Network-a dozen men and two
women-sent to infiltrate those organizations. The Last Soldiers of
the Cold War tells the story of those unlikely Cuban spies and
their eventual unmasking and prosecution by US authorities. Five of
the Cubans received long or life prison terms on charges of
espionage and murder. Global best-selling Brazilian author Fernando
Morais narrates the riveting tale of the Cuban Five in vivid,
page-turning detail, delving into the decades-long conflict between
Cuba and the US, the growth of the powerful Cuban exile community
in Florida, and a trial that eight Nobel Prize winners condemned as
a travesty of justice. The Last Soldiers of the Cold War is both a
real-life spy thriller and a searching examination of the Cold
War's legacy.
