Prominent Miami plastic surgeon Raymond Peters is still grieving over the loss of his wife, Rebbie, when his childhood friend Pepe Orozco, whom he hasn’t seen or heard of in thirty years, reappears in his life with a shocking secret. Sonia, the teenaged sweetheart Raymond left behind in Cuba, was pregnant. She had a son, who is now terminally ill with cancer and, before dying, wants to meet his dad. Raymond travels to Cuba with Pepe and finds himself immersed in an unbelievable conspiracy with far-reaching political implications. He has been lured to the island as part of a diabolical plot that will allow an ailing Castro to retire peacefully in Mexico and the CIA to run the country. He is in Havana, really, to perform plastic surgery on Fidel Castro and Pepe, to switch their respective identities. As Raymond is forced by Castro to do the surgery or else, he realizes his life is in danger, and he can trust no one – not even his son, Pepe, or the alluring but married Sonia – with whom he has rekindled their old romance. Now Raymond must perform the surgeries and escape Cuba before he loses his life — the question is how?
