Ex-spy Kendal was one of the best, but now sheā€™s wearing the toughest disguise of her career: Mom.

ā€œAn incisive feminist thriller and heaps of fun.ā€ā€”Margot Douaihy

Kendal Carter is out in the cold and she wouldnā€™t have it any other way. Itā€™s been four years since her daughter Rosie was born and Kendal has kept her miles away from the danger of her former life as a spy. But when their hiding place is discovered, Kendal is forced to turn to old contacts for help. Her longtime friend and ex-handler Rico doesnā€™t miss his chance to pull his best spy back in. Whisking them to London, Rico offers them a luxury safe house in an area with good schools. How can Kendal resist?

But thereā€™s a catch, of course. Rico wants Kendal to come back to work for his espionage agency Bon Temps. Heā€™s offering an assignment with no apparent downside, investigating one of the dads at Rosieā€™s new school who works at one of Londonā€™s biggest, murkiest tech firms and suspected of being up to no good. It should be easy enough for someone with her experience, and luckily, mother is the perfect cover.

However, it doesnā€™t take long for Kendal to realize that Ricoā€™s got an agenda of his own. The tech firm may be dealing in darker and more deadly secrets than they all realize, plus the world of coffee mornings and playdates comes with its own web of allegiances and betrayals. Kendal soon finds herself in way too deep . . .

A gripping blend of suspenseful spy thriller with heartfelt womenā€™s fiction, I, Spy is the first in a propulsive debut series about the masks we all wear, whether as a spy or as a parent.
