Hurricane Hannah was conceived and born in the wastes of the South Atlantic, and christened by the U.S. Weather Bureau. Unpredictable as any woman, she swung round the Bahamas in a great arc, picking up her skirts as she raced at 125 m.p.h. back to the Florida coast. She was in a very great hurry, she had an urgent appointment with the President of the United States.

She swept the President's helicopter off course, and deposited him ... he and his two aides knew not where. Until, struggling to the door of a village inn, they saw framed in a place of honour over the bar the bearded face of Fidel Castro.

What follows is an adventure in the best Max Catto tradition involving an Irish Priest, a trio of prison camp escapees, a unit of girl soldiers, a decrepit 80-year-old Mississippi paddle-steamer, not forgetting the embattled Cuban and U.S. Intelligence Corps.
