Well you’ve intrigued me, @Coiler, into picking it up. Something about the plot sounded familiar until I got out to Amazon and saw the blurb from Rowland White. White’s non-fiction Phoenix Squadron (which I’ve not yet read) deals with a 1972 crisis between the two countries involved and the HMS Ark Royal getting involved. So the premise isn’t on quite so shaky ground, I don’t think.
Guatemala has claimed and threatened Belize IOTL.So the premise isn’t on quite so shaky ground, I don’t think.

And I’ve revealed the extent of my knowledge of Latin and South American politics and diplomacy! I’m vaguely surprised I didn’t come across this when I wrote my US invades Venezuela in 2003 story for another anthology.
"Belize conflict actually happens, oh no" is a good idea for an AH thriller (or even close-enough-to-AH one) so I'm curious enough to pick this 'un up too.

I have to admit I bought it as well out of curiosity.It might be early 2022 before a review appears, if someone hasn’t laid claim to it via @Gary Oswald.I really want a review of Dark Rose, which I've heard described as exceptionally silly but also very good.
Bought and read and picked up Dark Rose due to this, because after learning what Dark Rose is actually about, how could I not??
