Meer over het boek

Do you have what it takes to stand between us and the enemy? I'm here to prevent a major attack that will kill children. Alone in the country where my colleague was taken and beheaded, every hour of delay increases the risk of exposure or failure. Fear injects my thoughts with venom. Amaryllis Fox was recruited by the CIA at 21 after 9/11. Following intense training—mastering a Glock, escaping flexicuffs, enduring torture, and preparing for suicide if captured—she goes undercover to prevent nuclear, biological, and chemical weapons from reaching terror groups. Posing as an art dealer, she embarks on perilous missions worldwide, with each operation raising the stakes and intensifying the risks. Her determination to stop the masterminds nearly destroys her until she learns that defeating the enemy requires the courage to sit across from them and listen. This explosive first-hand account is filled with suspense and plot twists reminiscent of Carrie Mathison in Homeland. Life Undercover presents an edgy narrative of a CIA operative hunting the world’s most dangerous terrorists through deception, disguises, and clandestine operations to protect our streets. Amaryllis offers compelling insights drawn from her experiences on the front lines.
