“Fidel's Last Days is not only a taut, expertly crafted page-turner; it is also a tender yet unsentimental exploration of the universal yearning to be free, a yearning which sometimes means having to kill one of your own. This is a timely, important, and moving novel, and I urge you to read it!" —Andre Dubus III
"Fidel's Last Days is a wry, humane, thinking-man's thriller. Roland Merullo has written a novel that is, in every way, worthy of comparisons to Graham Greene and only Graham Greene. One of the best books of the year." —Dennis Lehane
"A powerful tale. The suspense is as thick as an authentic café cubano, and the labyrinthine plot appears to point to a successful conclusion, until Merullo jams the knife in one last time and gives this timely thriller a final, chilling twist." —Publishers Weekly
