Zusammenfassung: | No true life story can possibly compare to the fantastic adventures of Marita Lorenz. From Fidel Castro's lover at age 19, to CIA spy, to human rights activist, Marita tells her own incredible story with all of the passion and force that it took to live it. In the spring of 1959, aboard her father's ship in Havana harbor, Marita fell under the spell of Fidel Castro and soon fled home and family in New York City to return to Cuba to be with him. Installed in a suite of the Havana Hilton, she became Castro's lover, trusted advisor, and a lieutenant in his 26th of July movement. Within months, she was pregnant with his child. Despite or perhaps because of her close relationship with Fidel, she was betrayed by those nearest to him - kidnapped, drugged, and forcibly aborted of her child. Still heavily sedated and close to death, she was taken back to the United States where she was immediately embraced by National Security officials eager to use her in their growing anti-Castro propaganda campaign. Soon this escalated into something far more sinister as government agents tried to program Marita into an assassin to kill Castro. Marita's adventures continue as a disillusioned young woman is turned into an accomplished but unwilling operative in the CIA by the likes of Frank Sturgis and E. Howard Hunt.
