In the title story, Any Other Name, it is 1962 and the world is on the brink of nuclear war. For 13 days in October what became known as the Cuban Missile Crisis raged in Cuba, the United States and Russia and the story begins when a 21 year-old ex-marine, working for the CIA, becomes involved in the operations. The young ex-marine was there when DEF CON 2, one step before all-out nuclear war, was activated and he saw history made from a much different angle than anyone else and this, then, is his story.The Terror is told in the 1st person and the subject-the writer's friend-known only as the Russian, is a study in contradictions. Here is yet another book of short stories by author Keith G. Laufenberg all of which will stay on your mind long after you've put the book back down.
