Ada Tremont finds herself just out of grad school and working for COG, a government accountability organization. One chance encounter plucks her from the intern pool and into the center of a daring hunt to discover the truth behind the myth of the powerful leader of the Cuban-American exile community. As Ada and her mentor at the watchdog group Peter Vane separate fact from fiction, a web of lies threatens to entangle them and the eclectic group they've assembled to help. Will the couple and their rag-tag band, which includes a charismatic former diplomat, a fearless investigative journalist, a barrier-breaking Congressman, and a nimble-fingered torch singer prevail or be swallowed by the shadow of the man known as "el murcielago."
