Marita Lorenz is one of them. Born in Germany at the outbreak of WWII, Marita was incarcerated in a Nazi concentration camp as a child. In 1959, she traveled to Cuba where she met and fell in love with Fidel Castro. Yet upon fleeing to America, she was recruited by the CIA to assassinate the Fidel. Torn by love and loyalty, she couldn't bring herself to slip him the lethal pills. Her life would take many more twists and turns--including having a child with ex-dictator of Venezuela, Marcos Perez Jimenez; testifying about the John F. Kennedy assassination; and becoming a party girl with close ties the New York mafia (and then a police informant). Caught up in Cold War intrigue, espionage, and conspiracy--this is Marita's incredible autobiography of a young woman who became a spy for the CIA."--Provided by publisher. 600 10 $a Lorenz, Marita, $d 1939- 600 10 $a Castro, Fidel, $d 1926-2016 $x Assassination attempts. 600 10 $a Castro, Fidel, $d 1926-2016 $x Relations with women. 650 0 $a Intelligence officers $z United States $v Biography. 650 0 $a Espionage, American $z Cuba. 650 0 $a Large type books. 655 7 $a Autobiographies. $2 lcgft 700 1 $a White, Maria $c (Translator), $e translator. 830 0 $a Thorndike Press large print biography series. 941 $a 4 945 $a lpt 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20181006112743.0 952 $l KWPE446 $d 20180731031456.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20180103012011.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20171221011324.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=E34537C2E61C11E7AB1B6A7197128E48 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
