Passport to Spy: A Kat Lawson Mystery by Nancy Cole Silverman
I am happy to welcome protagonist Kat Lawson to Escapes With Dollycas today!
I never knew how much I would enjoy working as a travel correspondent until the FBI approached me and offered me a PASSPORT TO SPY, or more specifically, a job to work undercover as a European feature writer. My name is Kat Lawson, and to be honest, when I accepted their offer, I had no idea what I was getting into. The assignment seemed easy enough, and the perks were even better. All expenses paid; food, hotels, travel. What more could I want? All I had to do was visit exciting and unusual sights, take pictures, write about what I had seen, and report to my publisher/FBI handler on those I was secretly assigned to observe. At no point did anyone tell me what I was doing might be dangerous or, even worse, that I might become addicted to the high of an undercover operation? My first assignment with Journey International sounded like a slam dunk. I was to cover Germany's famous Christmas markets and, while in Munich, visit the opening of a new museum and make contact with Hans von Hausmann, the gallery's handsome young curator. The FBI was working with a group of International Agencies who believed Hausmann had access to a hidden cache of masterpieces stolen during the 2nd World War and believed to be part of the World's Largest Art Heist. It was my job to get close to Hans and, if possible, get eyes on the cache and report what I had seen to my handler. I wasn't supposed to do any more than that. Certainly nothing risky. But you know what they say about those best-laid plans... The truth is, I love what I do. I'd like to get back to a newsroom one day, but nothing beats a breathless chase in a Maserati through a snow-covered alpine pass or being in the crosshairs of a Russian mobster who would stop at nothing to see me dead. The fact is, I'm making a difference, and my instincts as a journalist have gone quickly from pen and paper to those more clandestine skills I needed to save my life. Thank you Kat for visiting today! Keep reading for more info about Passport to Spy including where to buy your copy!
