My life as an undercover CIA agent: Part Two

Available for over a year

Amaryllis Fox tells Jo Fidgen how she was head-hunted by two different spying agencies while studying at Oxford and Georgetown Universities. She was recruited by the CIA aged 21 and within a few years she was an undercover field agent. Amaryllis lived under false identities, infiltrating arms dealing networks. She was pushed into getting married twice during her service so her partners could gain the necessary security clearance. She even took her baby on secret missions. Amaryllis has written a book about her life as a spy called Life Undercover: Coming of Age in the CIA.
