Summary

James Bond meets Charade in this glamorous spy novel about Jackie Kennedy's fictitious adventures as an unofficial CIA agent in Paris in 1951, when she was 22-year-old Jacqueline Lee Bouvier. It is inspired by an authentic letter in the John F. Kennedy Library written by Jacqueline stating that she is going to work for the CIA. Now imagine what might have happened when Jackie started her new job! Plunged into a world of intrigue and international espionage, this pampered debutante is soon charging from one death-defying exploit to the next, all executed with brainy, sophisticated charm. Romance is also in the air, but her fellow agent may not be quite what he seems...
