The Cuban Affair marks the 20th novel authored by Nelson DeMille.[1][2] Several of DeMille's previous titles have secured positions on the New York Times bestseller list.[3] This book was published by Simon & Schuster and became available on September 17, 2017.
In a feature dated June 2, 2017, Publishers Weekly spotlighted DeMille and emphasized his work on The Cuban Affair.[4] DeMille's fascination with Cuba originates from his childhood experiences living near Cuban refugees. To prepare for his novel, he traveled to Cuba in October 2015 for location research.
On September 5, 2017, DeMille participated in a panel discussion alongside former Cuban detainee Alan P. Gross, focusing on the situation in Cuba.[5]
It is important to note that another writer, Jim Hughes, authored a separate novel also titled The Cuban Affair which was released in 2010.[6]

The central character, Daniel "Mac" MacCormick, is an ex-U.S. Army infantry officer who completed two tours in Afghanistan and earned the Silver Star along with two Purple Heart awards.[7] He is engaged by Cuban-American clients to secretly recover documents and financial assets from within Cuba.
