Call me naïve, but when I was a girl - watching James Bond and devouring Harriet the Spy - all I wanted was to grow up to be a spy. Unlike most kids, I didn't lose my secret-agent aspirations. So as a bright-eyed, idealistic college grad, I sent my resume to the CIA.

Getting in was a story in itself. I peed in more cups than you could imagine, and was nearly condemned as a sexual deviant by the staff psychologist. My roommates were getting freaked out by government investigators lurking around, asking questions about my past.

Finally, the CIA was training me to crash cars into barriers at 60 mph. Jump out of airplanes with cargo attached to my body. Survive interrogation, travel in alias, lose a tail. One thing they didn't teach us was how to date a guy while lying to him about what you do for a living. That I had to figure out for myself.

Then I was posted overseas. And that's when the real fun began.

Loved the writing and such a fantastic narration.
Got a sense of the challenges of training, the banality of a Case Officer work, paranoia, the frustration of politics. Far from the glamour imagined.
The narration brings the characters to life and would love to hear her again.

Loved it

Not as exciting as I thought. A bit like the expectations of her career, I guess?

Not quite what I was expecting

Amazing insight into the life of an agent and well paced
A life devoted to her country until finally disillusioned

Insider view

Good to know even the agents see through the appalling politics eventually! Definitely puts a damper on ‘spying’

Interesting

Lindsay is an amazingly down to earth woman with the spirit of an adventurer....and a charming and funny naivety connected to her worldliness. Jennifer was the perfect narrator....made the book even better!

Excellent...enlightening..
