Welcome to the eighteenth exciting episode of the Love and Death Mystery and Political Espionage Series.

After returning from the armed conflict with North Korea in the China Sea, and after cheating death, Harold Gatewood vows to live a quiet life in Gibson City, Illinois. He soon breaks that vow and returns to Caracas, Venezuela to help the CIO prepare for the coming collapse of the corrupt, narco-dictatorship of President Alvaro Roma, and to protect American interests in South America.

Gatewood's covert mission includes negotiations with and assistance for, the People's Rights and Honor Party, the PRHP, and their leader Rosenda Maura, the "Dove of Freedom", and efforts to free Vidal Gaizka, the man the Venezuelan people want released from prison to assume the presidency.

Gatewood returns to Spain to work with King Carlos Alfonso IV, and to Cuba to work with President Alberto Bertalina, for a solution to the Venezuelan situation. His work there brings a return of haunting memories that remain in his head.

In Caracas, Gatewood meets the beautiful Laia Paz, who falls in love with him and helps him with his under-the-covers adventures. He also dodges assassination attempts by AIO agent Dionisio Brasis and former Venezuelan cabinet member Juan Emilio and is impacted by a total war between the Columbian and Venezuelan drug cartels.

Please join Gatewood as the story races across Washington, D.C., Spain, Scotland, Cuba, Columbia, Trinidad, and Venezuela.
