Description:
Melina has been preparing for a future career as a spy.
She just doesn’t know it.
Legendary spy Evan Roberts always knew that his fifteen-year-old daughter Melina also possessed the absolute lack of fear required of an agent. Without telling her his real profession or his intention, he began to guide her toward an eventual career as a spy. However, Melina’s world is shattered after her mom is involved in an accident that leaves her mysteriously unhurt but unresponsive. Her father’s plans on hold, Melina settles into life at a suburban high school, immersing herself in a world of schoolwork, her friends and a budding romance with Alex, the cute new guy in her class.
When Melina and her father uncover shocking new information about her mother’s accident, Melina is pulled deep into her father’s shadowy world. With Alex desperately trying to find her and only hours to go before it will be too late to save her mother, Melina and her father work together using their combined skills to find a way to reach her.
AUTHOR'S PLAYLIST
1. Hooverphonic – Inhaler
This is a song that sets the tone and plays in the background throughout the book.
2. Curve – Perish
When Evan has thoughts about his wife, this song is playing.
3. Throwing Muses – Shimmer
Any Throwing Muses song would fit nicely here but Shimmer is one of my favorites.
4. Bowery Electric – Freedom Fighter
As Evan is trying to escape during a mission, I can hear this song.

A beautiful song about how we should help others.

Any time that Melina is involved in a fight, this song is playing.
7. Massive Attack – Protection
This is a song about somebody backing you up at all costs.
8. Cocteau Twins – Iceblink Luck
I can’t understand a word that is said in this song, but it fits the mood of the book.

I think of this song when, Ellen, the antagonist to Melina is around.

Alex is humming this song whenever he is around Melina.

This song plays when Melina’s friend Jean is around.
