Marita Lorenz, now 78 years old and residing in Brooklyn, New York, has led a life that reads like a Hollywood script.

Lorenz was a lover of Fidel Castro, was involved in plots to assassinate him, and was present at many of the significant geopolitical events of the Cold War era.

According to Lorenz, “One thing just led to another.”

Lorenz’s life story is now documented in a book entitled “Marita: The Spy Who Loved Castro” (Pegasus Books, out Sept. 5).

This book is at least the sixth version of her life story, and there have been three books and two movies based on her life.

A third movie, starring Jennifer Lawrence as Lorenz, is in production and will be released by Sony.

When Lorenz was only six years old, she was sent to Bergen-Belsen concentration camp with her mother, who was an anti-Nazi American.

After being freed at the age of seven, Lorenz was raped by an American soldier who lived nearby.

When she was 19, she was on her father’s ship in Havana Harbor when Fidel Castro came aboard, only a month after he had taken over Cuba from Fulgencio Batista in the 26 of July Revolution.

This meeting led to a seven-month affair between Lorenz and Castro in his suite at the Havana Hilton.

She became pregnant, but when she was seven months along, she believes someone drugged her, and when she woke up, her child was gone, and she was alone in a dark hotel room.

After returning to the United States, the FBI approached Lorenz and recruited her to take part in a plot to assassinate Castro.

She was sent back to Cuba carrying two botulism-laced pills that could kill the general in minutes.

When they reunited, Castro immediately knew why she was there.

In dramatic fashion, he took his gun out of its holster and handed it to her, almost taunting her.

She dumped the pills into the bidet and returned to the United States.

Lorenz was soon entangled with the FBI again and falling in with anti-Castro Cubans in Florida.

She started working as a gun-runner and courier for the CIA in the Everglades in preparation for the Bay of Pigs invasion.

The mission was meant to overthrow the Cuban dictator, but ended in embarrassment for the United States instead, with 100 Cuban exiles dead and 1,200 captured in the Cuban harbor.

Lorenz was soon dispatched to collect money from Marcos Perez Jimenez, one of the most repressive Central American dictators of the 20th century, who had led a brutal regime in Venezuela and was living in exile in Miami.

Perez Jimenez was entranced by the sassy spy and asked her to have some wine with him. Lorenz continued to be his girlfriend for the next two years, and when she got pregnant again, he was thrilled, but extradition proceedings against him stymied any chance at a happy family life.

Lorenz filed a paternity suit against Perez Jimenez in an attempt to help him remain in the country, which backfired badly.

He was extradited, and because she had publicly named him as her daughter’s father, the confidentiality clause he’d insisted upon before giving her a $5 million trust fund had been violated.

At a loss for a means to support herself, she sought the help of Frank Sturgis, whom she had met in Cuba, and thought he could help her get to Perez Jimenez.

The crew was still consumed with hatred for JFK for not sending in air cover to ensure their success in the Bay of Pigs invasion.

One night they started drawing circles on maps and discussing something in Dallas. “We’reDespite the numerous books and films that have been based on her life story, Lorenz admits that there is still much more to tell.

In her latest book, “Marita: The Spy Who Loved Castro,” she recounts her tumultuous journey in life as a lover, spy, and would-be assassin, and describes the many risks she took along the way.

The book includes details of her early years, which were filled with drama, including her time at Bergen-Belsen concentration camp where she was interned with her mother at age 6.

She was raped by an American soldier at age 7, just after being freed from the concentration camp.

These early wounds did not deter her from seeking out danger, however. At the age of 19, she was aboard her father’s ship in Havana Harbor when Fidel Castro approached her.

Lorenz was fascinated by his face, which she describes as “penetrating” and “beautiful.”

The two soon began a passionate affair that would change the course of her life. Castro called her Alemanita, which means “Little German Girl.”

After she returned to America, he sent a private plane to collect her, and she stayed with him in Cuba for seven months, in his suite at the Havana Hilton.

Lorenz describes Castro as a good lover and smoocher who liked to hold hands and hug a lot.

She soon became pregnant, but when she was seven months pregnant, someone slipped a drug into her milk, and when she awoke, the baby was gone, and she was alone in a dark hotel room.

Lorenz quickly returned to the United States, furious at Castro and devastated by the loss of her child.

The FBI soon recruited Lorenz to take part in a plot to assassinate Castro.

She was sent back to Cuba to reunite with him, carrying two botulism-laced pills that could kill him in minutes.

However, Castro immediately knew why she was there and taunted her by taking his gun out of its holster and handing it to her.

She dumped the pills into the bidet and returned to the United States. Back in the U.S., she was soon entangled with the FBI again, working as a gun-runner and courier for the CIA in the Everglades, in preparation for the Bay of Pigs invasion.

The mission was meant to overthrow the Cuban dictator, but it ended in disaster for the United States, with 100 Cuban exiles dead and 1,200 captured in the Cuban harbor.

After the failed invasion, Lorenz fell in with anti-Castro Cubans in Florida, working as a courier to collect money from Marcos Perez Jimenez, one of the most repressive Central American dictators of the 20th century, who was living in exile in Miami.

Perez Jimenez was entranced by the sassy spy and asked her to have some wine with him. He flirted with her, and they eventually became lovers.

When Lorenz got pregnant again, Perez Jimenez was thrilled, but extradition proceedings against him stymied any chance at a happy family life.

Lorenz filed a paternity suit against Perez Jimenez, which backfired badly, and he was eventually extradited.

Because she had publicly named him as her daughter’s father, the confidentiality clause he’d insisted upon before giving her a $5 million trust fund had been violated, meaning he would no longer support her.

At a loss for a means to support herself, Lorenz sought the help of Frank Sturgis, the FBI agent who had recruited her to assassinate Castro.

Sturgis introduced Lorenz to anti-Castro Cubans who hated JFK for not sending in air cover to ensure the success of the Bay of Pigs invasion.
