At the end of WWI, Europe’s prosperous sugar industry lies in ruins, sparking an international sugar shortage and skyrocketing prices. By 1920, sleepy Cuba has become the world’s leading sugar producer. Suddenly, Havana boasts more millionaires than any other city on earth. Speculators flock to Cuba, along with thousands of Americans escaping the enforced sobriety of Prohibition. Every night, the rich gather in Havana’s nightclubs, ballrooms, and glittering new casino, swaying to the island’s infectious music and swilling its famous rum. As the price of sugar peaks and begins its inevitable decline, political and labor unrest shake the island. Equally unsettling are the ritual murders of several beautiful young entertainers. No one seems eager to solve the crimes until law student Eduardo Betancourt and journalist Tomás Fuentes team up to track down the killer-a man with voodoo-haunted dreams.
