Unusual spy thriller
18 year old Sam is the daughter of an undercover cop. As the story slowly evolves so does the personality of Sam and the relationship with her Father Jim. Twisting and complicated, thrilling, very tricky plot, very convincing development of the adolescent main character. Not a easy going fiction but worth to hold on to the end and think it over.
