Book Description

Spy-Bate begins with an innocuous cargo flight from Canada to Cuba during the Bay of Pigs invasion in 1961. It graphically details: Sabotage, Espionage, Life, Death; Betrayal and ten years of atrocities in Castro's most infamous gulags. Most importantly, it renders conclusive circumstantial evidence of Langley's duplicity in compromising the mission and ultimately, the CIA's adamant indifference to its' moral, ethical and lawful accountability.

Spy Bate: Memoirs Of A Cover Agent is the autobiographical story of Ron Jones, a man who barely escaped execution and spent ten years in a Cuban prison as a covert operative for the American CIA, before he was finally released in 1973. Written in Jones' own words, without the use of a co-author, Spy Bate questions why the goals he sacrificed years of his freedom for became so callously tossed aside, even as he was ignored and left to rot in a terrible jail cell. His memoir tells not only of the crushing hardships he endured, but the extreme difficulty of re-adjusting to daily life, especially in the wake of chemical and sexual revolutions in American culture.
