In this book we see Richard Camellion uncover and prevent a Cuban backed attempt to destroy the Panama Canal.The story opens with Camellion taking down a DGI safehouse in Miami and from there the action rarely lets up, moving to Panama with Camellion employing his mastery of disguise to infiltrate a banana plantation run by a sympathiser to the rebels who will be attacking the Panama Canal.
Based on the information gained in that raid, Camellion leads a half dozen Black Berets to attack the Rebels, who will attack the canal when the bombs detonate to destroy the locks that allow the Canal to operate. The team is lead to the location of the bombs that will destroy the canal. They also mention another team of 120 who will attack at the same time. Whilst not explicitly stated I suspect that these are Cuban troops to suppliment the Panamanian rebels that Camellion has now stopped.
This lead to the final battle to stop the detonation. Will The Death Merchant stop the Cuban plot to destroy the Panama Canal?
C'mon of course he does.
