When ghosts from Afghanistan resurface in Hong Kong's gleaming towers, retired operative Dantes Cruz discovers that some wars never truly end. Armed with nothing but his deadly skills and an encyclopedic knowledge of premium cigars, he must hunt down Lucifer Remington-his former brother-in-arms turned sadistic human trafficker.
From the neon-lit streets of Hong Kong to the industrial maze of Rotterdam's port, and finally to Miami's Little Havana, Cruz wages a one-man war against an international network that uses sacred tobacco rituals as calling cards for unspeakable crimes. Each victim is marked with specific cigar ash, each location chosen to maximize psychological impact.
But Lucifer possesses more than military training-he wields hypnotic powers that can bend minds to his will, making him nearly unstoppable. As Cruz tracks his quarry across three continents, he must rely on ancient TaÃno smoking rituals and cutting-edge weaponry to level the playing field. The hunt becomes personal when thirty innocent women become pawns in Lucifer's twisted game.
Blending sophisticated spy craft with Cuban tobacco culture, The Smoke of Revenge I delivers relentless action sequences, exotic locations, and a protagonist whose appreciation for life's finer things never dulls his lethal edge. Author Edo Cruz crafts a noir thriller that reads like John Le Carré meeting Cuban cigar masters in a world where smoke signals can mean the difference between salvation and damnation.
Perfect for fans of international thrillers, military fiction, and anyone who appreciates the deadly art of a perfectly executed plan.
