The Comandante's Gift is an action-adventure novel
historically based on the Contra-Sandinista war in Nicaragua during the 1980's. It weaves the culture and geography of the
area into the story as two heroines aid the escape of a downed CIA pilot. There are romance and many close calls as the Sandinista
Army pursues. The politics of the time are an important part of the story. The Contra movement against the Sandinista Marxist
Leninist government eventually led to a negotiated truce between the two and the loss of political control by the Sandinistas
in 1990. The story takes place in Nicaragua, Costa Rica, and to a minor extent Honduras and Guatemala.
