Our Man in Havana (sh. Naš čovjek u Havani) je roman britanskog književnika Grahama Greenea objavljen 1958. godine. Inspiriran je Greeneovim iskustvima u tajnoj službi MI6 za vrijeme Drugog svjetskog rata, kada je, između ostalog, radio zajedno sa znamenitim dvostrukim agentom "Garbom". Protagonist je James Wormold, britanski prodavač usisivača na Kubi pod vlašću tadašnjeg diktatora Fulgencia Batiste, koji pristaje raditi za britansku tajnu službu iako nema nikakvih društvenih veza, iskustva niti talenta za ozbiljnu obavještajnu djelatnost. Radnja prikazuje kako, pritisnut nesređenim porodičnim životom i lošim financijama, nastoji od svojih nadređenih "izmusti" financijska sredstva stvarajući fiktivnu mrežu agenata i šaljući lažne izvještaje o raspoređivanju projektila na otoku, te kako to izazove neočekivane posljedice nakon što tu šaradu i suparničke obavještajne službe počnu shvaćati ozbiljno. Our Man in Havana je kritičarima imponirao svojim crnim humorom i satiričkim prikazom obavještajne djelatnosti, a već sljedeće godine je poslužio kao predložak za istoimeni film sa Alecom Guinessom u glavnoj ulozi.
