Last Boat to Cadiz
Europe, 1945: Hitler is Dead

Amid the chaos a man like no other makes his way south through France and into Spain. No one will stand in his way and live. Only idealistic young Wilson Tripp, American Vice Consul in the city of Seville, stands to discover the man’s true identity and the stunning threat he poses. That is, if Wilson Tripp can survive…

“An authentic and enormously exciting novel.”
—New York Times

“I Wish I had written this book—Ole!”
—Ray Bradbury.

“Barnaby Conrad has written a hair—raising glamorous adventure tale—a winner!”
—Sidney Sheldon, author of After Midnight and Are You Afraid of the Dark?

“What a terrific story!”
—William F. Buckley, Jr., author of Brothers No More and A Very Private Plot

“Last Boat to Cadiz is a first—class ticket to adventure. Civilians caught onboard a small boat with escaping Nazis, secret OSS operatives, dangerous criminals: With the grace and wit of Graham Greene, author Barnaby Conrad propels us on heart—stopping journey from Seville to Cadiz in the dying days of World War II. Then, in a final flourish, Conrad supplies a surprising answer to one of the war’s most enduring mysteries. Riveting and utterly enjoyable, Last Boat to Cadiz is the perfect airport book.”
—Gayle Lynds, New York Times best—selling author of Mesmerized and The Altman Code, with Robert Ludlum


“The world of Nazis in Spain and the chase for the sea is truly fresh. The story works beautifully, really builds. I felt soaked in hot Spanish sun hearing the bulls snorting, ready to charge. The characters are terrific—I felt I was in a John Huston movie.”
—Laird Koenig, author of The Little Girl Who Lives Down the Lane

“Barnaby Conrad’s painterly eye, love of Spain and exuberant narrative style make this downriver voyage of the Cayetana and its motley passenger list one razzling—dazzling adventure.”
—John Leggett, author of Ross and Tom and A Daring Young Man

About the Author

Born in 1922, Conrad became a mid-century renaissance man, enjoying boxing, painting, and a brief career in civil service for the United States government in Spain, which led him to bullfighting. As the only American to ever battle bulls in Spain, Peru, and Mexico, Conrad was well equipped to pen Matador, which John Steinbeck declared the best book of 1952.

In 1973, Conrad founded the Santa Barbara Writers Conference at Cate School, and grew that into a renowned annual event, drawing famous authors from around the country. He ran that conference with his wife, Mary, until they sold it in 2004.
