About this ebook
My Little Eye is the propulsive and poignant follow-up to the debut thriller I, Spy, featuring spy/mom Kendal Carter.
Kendal Carter is a freelance spy for hire. But her life will look familiar to a lot of women; days gripped by the guilt and games of motherhood, haunted by grandparents who have their own ideas, and childhood memories that might not be quite right...
London is being disrupted by a hot new activist group, Stop The Madness (STM). STM are supposed to be the good guys; fighting corruption and organizing massive protests. Following a large-scale STM attack, both Kendal and her handler, Rico Ortez, suspect something shady. Rico wants answers and Kendal agrees to uncover the real story behind the apparently altruistic organization.
Following weeks of no routine and even less childcare (aka summer “break”), Kendal is desperate to get out of the park and back into the field, and even Rosie, her five-year-old, is ready for school. While most parents are looking forward to resuming normal schedules, Kendal’s agenda is more sinister; she is running a covert hunt for Rosie’s father, Khalil, who has disappeared in unnerving circumstances. With Rosie back in school, Kendal is finally free to work.
Meanwhile, Kendal’s mother, Jenny, is on her own mission to deliver on every “overbearing grandma” trope; she gives Rosie indulgent gifts, invites them on impractical trips and offers unsolicited parenting advice. Even worse, Jenny is part of the UK Secret Service, so she can see inside their lives whether Kendal allows it or not.
Kendal’s work/life balance takes on a fresh jeopardy when she finds the strands of her personal life and covert ops have some worrying overlaps. In a world where trust is hard-earned, can she actually rely on either friends, or family?
In this powerful, pacy thriller, Kendal Carter must survive single parenting, while navigating the murky world of espionage which refuses to let her go.
