Publisher's Synopsis
CIGARETTES IN THE RAIN
a novel by Mike Tucker
Josh Kavanagh, Connacht, Ireland Mike Tucker was right at the heart of a clandestine operation in the Far East in the late 1980s, which was classified from 1988 to 2013---CIGARETTES IN THE RAIN is inspired by that legendary counterterrorism operation against Japanese Red Army terrorists in Okinawa. A meditation on destiny and a point-blank, ripping good read, CIGARETTES IN THE RAIN is a stunning counterterrorist saga that spans 40 years and four continents, an epic journey story with a brilliant, moving "story within the story" of an American counterterrorist called on to help a young boy in New Mexico deal with life-shattering tragedy. This is CIGARETTES IN THE RAIN by the only writer in our time compared to Hemingway, Mike Tucker.
