cluttered.\u00a0 An assortment of twelve officers stood around listening to him.\u00a0 He was holding the North American newspaper in one hand while he pounded the desk with the other.\u00a0 In full tantrum, he also kicked the wall, and strode back and forth in front of Escalona, Ramiro, Pineiro, and Raul, waving his lit cigar in the air as he screamed and yelled.\u00a0 Ramiro sat in a chair with his feet up, watching Fidel rant and rave.\u00a0 He knew this was not a joke, but he didn\u2019t look as worried as the other men.\u00a0 He, too, was smoking a cigar.\u00a0 Castro stopped in front of him and asked, \u201cThis must be the work of very sophisticated intelligence.\u00a0 Who is behind this?\u00a0 Do you have any information for me?\u00a0 Only a small group of people in our circle are privileged to this information.\u00a0 How in the hell did this get out and into the hands of our enemies?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ramiro reclined in his chair and took a long drag on his cigar.\u00a0 He had been waiting for months for this question\u2014he had not dared before now to tell Castro that the mole was inside his own circle of confidants, for fear of the reaction it would elicit.\u00a0 He rested his cigar on the glass ash tray close to him and looked straight into Castro\u2019s eyes.\u00a0 \u201cYes, my commander and chief, I am sorry to tell you that the Lightning, our worst nightmare for the past ten years, is the one who has been passing delicate secrets to the North Americans and the rest of the world.\u00a0 As you know, it has been nearly impossible to detect the leak, and I have finally come to the conclusion why it has been so difficult.\u00a0 It is because it is right here\u2014in your office!\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>So begins the story of The Zipper, see our <a
