Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Intelligent author pens another good book
Review: This edition of Capital Crimes Novels features Max Pauling, an ex-CIA agent who has retired to New Mexico with his lady love, Jessica, to give flying lessons. He is persuaded to take on what is supposed to be a small job which is to fly some medical supplies into Cuba. His real assignment will be to discover if an American pharmaceutical company is using a German company as a front for buying information on cancer drugs which are being developed in Cuba. His contact promises Max an easy time, but of course, that is not to be. Pauling is caught in the cross-fire between pro-Castro and anti-Castro forces and someone tries to frame him for murder. Added to this is the attraction he feels for a Cuban female operative, so he is in trouble from all sides. Truman spins a good tale with believable characters, and neatly resolves the complex plot strands at the end of the book.
She maintains high quality writing in her series.
