When We Left Cuba by Chanel Cleeton
3.0
When I read Next Year in Havana the mysterious great-aunt Beatriz popped out to me and I had thought of "what is her story". It turns out that Chanel Cleeton has the same thought and started writing Beatriz's story at the same time as Next Year in Havana.
Beatriz's story takes place after the family arrives in Palm Beach and continues for the next few years through Kennedy's assassination in 1963. Beatriz is seeking revenge for her twin murder in Cuba and the CIA is willing to assist with that goal. This is a spy novel in the sense that Beatriz works with the CIA but it is much more a love story. Would you be able to compromise on your desires for the love of your life? That is Beatriz's journey.
