Dantes and H. Upmann

By Edo Cruz

In the humid alleyways of Havana, a mysterious package arrives with no return address. Inside, century-old cigars bearing a spy's initials, German-coded documents, and an unsettling warning. Dantes Cruz, a passionate researcher of Havana cigar culture, finds himself drawn into a conspiracy that crosses two world wars, a revolution, and the secret history of the most legendary Cuban cigar brand ever created.
Dantes and H. Upmann is a gripping historical thriller in which every curl of smoke conceals a century-old secret. From the bustling galleries of the Jos Mart factory to the dusty archives of Havana, from the air-conditioned offices of Miami to the weathered caf s of Vedado, Dantes Cruz follows the thread of an international spy network connecting the German Empire, the CIA, and the Kennedy presidency through an object as unexpected as a cigar box with a false bottom.
A novel where the art of the cigar becomes the guiding thread of an explosive investigation into power, betrayal, and collective memory. For fans of historical thrillers rooted in Cuban culture, for cigar enthusiasts who want to discover the other side of a fascinating world, and for all readers hungry for truths hidden within fiction.
Smoke never lies - if you know how to listen to it.
