Washington, D.C. - Mark Cymrot, a renowned international arbitrator, and litigator, unveils an extraordinary legal thriller in his latest book, Reward. Drawing readers into a real-life spy drama, the book delves into the complex and controversial case of Jose Guevara v. Republic of Peru, a story that spans international espionage, a multi-million-dollar reward, and a lawsuit that rattled governments in three countries.

At the heart of Reward is the high-profile capture of Vladimiro Montesinos, Peru's notorious former National Security chief. Montesinos, infamous for his involvement in numerous crimes, fled justice, sparking an international manhunt. Jose Guevara, a Venezuelan spy, claimed to have played a pivotal role in Montesinos' capture, demanding the $5 million reward offered by the Peruvian government. What followed was a courtroom battle that captivated global attention, as Guevara sued Peru for reneging on the reward, and Mark Cymrot stepped in to defend the nation.

Through a meticulous exploration of court documents, secret negotiations, and high-stakes cross-examinations, Reward provides readers with a rare behind-the-scenes look at the intersection of law, politics, and international intrigue. As the story unfolds, Cymrot uncovers a hidden truth that changes the course of the lawsuit, leading to a U.S. Court of Appeals rebuke of Peru before a dramatic reversal of fortunes.

“Reward reads like the latest spy thriller, yet it is a true story that captivated the legal world,” said Cymrot, whose decades-long career in international arbitration has earned him a reputation as one of the most accomplished legal minds of his generation. “This case was about much more than just money—it was about justice, integrity, and the complex relationships between nations.”

Mark Cymrot’s credentials are as compelling as the cases he chronicles. He has served as lead counsel in numerous high-profile arbitrations and lawsuits, including a $197 million verdict in the infamous silver market manipulation case, one of the top 10 jury verdicts of its decade. He has represented countries like Peru in disputes involving billions of dollars, reshaping economies, and defending national interests on the world stage.

In Reward, Cymrot brings his expertise as both a lawyer and a storyteller, offering readers insights into the art of persuasion, courtroom strategy, and the nuances of international law. Legal professionals and thriller enthusiasts alike will find the book to be a gripping read, full of twists and turns reminiscent of a spy novel.
