So when the British Secret Service asks him to become their Man in Havana he can’t afford to say no. \nThere’s just one problem: he doesn’t know anything! To avoid suspicion he begins concocting a series of intricate fictions. But Wormold soon discovers that his stories are closer to the truth than he could have ever imagined. \nFROM OUR COMMUNITY \n  \nVenue:Royal
