Ford gets a call from his ex-hippie friend Tomlinson, who has somehow strayed into the wrong waters on his boat, No Mas, and is now an unwilling guest of the Cuban government. Equipped with enough money for fines, bills, and bribes, Ford takes a circuitous route to Havana, only to discover that Tomlinson and a mysterious woman companion have disappeared, and that the story is considerably more complex and dangerous than he'd been told.

At its end, all secrets will be revealed - but they may not be ones Ford wants to hear....
