Cuba's former head of counterintelligence Fabián Escalante reviews the CIA's 630 plots to assassinate Fidel Castro, code-named “Executive Action.” Although melodramatic and at times comical, these CIA plans were deadly serious—and unconstitutional—as subsequent US government inquiries discovered, including the 1975 Senate Commission headed by Senator Church. Published as part of the “Secret War” series written by Fabián Escalante.
