Eyes on Havana: Memoir of an American Spy Betrayed by the CIA - Paperback
by Verne Lyon (Author), Philip Zwerling (Author)
An Iowa boy away at college, Verne Lyon was recruited by the CIA to spy on college professors and fellow students as part of Operation CHAOS, a massive surveillance program at the height of the Vietnam War. Framed by his handlers for an airport bombing, he was later sent to Cuba to subvert the Castro regime. Balking at increasingly nefarious missions, he tried to quit: twice kidnapped by the CIA, he landed in Leavenworth. Today a free man, his memoir details his journey through the secret workings of the U.S. government.
Verne Lyon is an aerospace engineer, a pilot with many FAA certificates, a SCUBA diver, and former CIA operative. He helped found and direct the Association of Responsible Dissent (ARDIS) and the Association of National Security Alumni, both made up of former national security personnel. He lives in the Midwest. Philip Zwerling, director of the creative writing program at the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley, is the author of three books and many articles.
