On March 12, 1956 Jesús de Galíndez, a Basque nationalist, Columbia University professor, and critic of Dominican dictator Rafael Trujillo, was kidnapped in New York and flown secretly to the Dominican Republic, where he disappeared. Although the case stimulated widespread press coverage, it remained shrouded in mystery for decades until the publication of this book, which unravels the complicated roles of the Dominican and US governments, as well as the FBI, the CIA and some NY police officers, in the affairs.
