Synopsis: Bestselling writer Mickey Spillane, creator of the iconic Mike Hammer, plunges readers into a world of seedy violence, alluring beauties, and twisting allegiances and alliances. As the Cold War rages in the background, things are about to heat up for Morgan the Raider.
Named for the famous English pirate, the notorious thief, heister, and conman may have knocked over his last Armored Car. Holed up in the hospital, he’s visited by feds who tell him they have him dead to rights for the robbery of $40 million. They offer him a lifeline: stay out of prison by granting another man his freedom.
Before he knows it, Morgan is on the sun-drenched shores of the Communist island nation of Nuevo Cadiz, in service to the U.S. Government. The plan? Spring a political prisoner out of heart of a lawless, bloodstained Caribbean dictatorship—by getting thrown behind the same bars himself.
