| Colonel Victoria Valiente is an important figure in the Communist party of Cuba. However, her husband is a famous mathematician, Manuel Pardo. Manuel's job allows him to travel widely and he becomes disillusioned with Castro's regime. Together, Victoria and Manuel enter into a dangerous and complex plot in this politically motivated thriller. I have not actually read the book, only reviews, but have no reason to think that mathematics plays an important role in the book. If you do read it, please contact me with information about any additional mathematical content you might find!
(Thanks to Peter Freyd for sending a review of the book.)

Where are the new works of mathematical fiction?: As you can see from this chronological listing, this database includes many works of mathematical fiction for each year from 1990 to 2025. Strangely, only two are listed for 2026, so far. Either less mathematical fiction is being published than in previous years or I'm just having more trouble finding it. If you know of any works of fiction that should be added to this list, especially recently published ones, please let me know. (Keep in mind that I do not include self-published works or children's fiction that just covers elementary mathematical concepts.) Thanks!
