The Bell by Hemingway

1942. A young and promising federal agent Joe Lucas, one of the best workers in the agency under Edgar Hoover, receives a rather strange assignment: to travel to Cuba, gain the trust of the popular writer Ernest Hemingway, and report in detail on each of his steps.

The thing is, Hemingway, who proposed to create a secret organization for the search and identification of German spies, is considered a fantasist and no one takes him seriously. Lucas also perceives him as a bored novice, but only until a strange coded letter emerges during the improvised 'spy games'. After which events take on a completely serious character...
