Set in the dark world of international espionage, from London to Mallorca, Croatia, Paris, and Cap Ferret: the gripping and suspenseful story of a young woman who unwittingly becomes a perfect asset in the long overdue finale of a covert special op

The young English narrator of Lea Carpenter's dazzling new novel has grown up unhappily in London, dreaming of escape, pretending to be someone else and obsessed with a locked private garden. On the eve of her twenty-first birthday, at a party near that garden, she meets its charismatic and mysterious new owner, Marcus, thirty-three years older, who sweeps her off her feet. Before long they are married at his finca in Mallorca, and at last she has escaped into a new role ? but at what price? On their honeymoon in Croatia, Marcus reveals there is something she can do for him-a plan is in place and she can help with 'a favor.'

This turns out to be posing as an art advisor to a family on Cap Ferret, where Marcus asks her to simply 'listen.' A helicopter deposits her at a remote, highly guarded and lavishly appointed compound on a spit of land in the Atlantic. It's presided over by an enigmatic, charming patriarch Edouard, along with his wife Dasha, children Nikki and Felix, and populated by a revolving cast of other guests-some suspicious, some intriguing, perhaps none, like her, what they seem.

Brilliantly compelling, this is a spellbinding and unexpectedly poignant story of a long- planned, high-stakes CIA-Mossad operation that only needed the right asset to complete.

Strong, Reliable Plates That Handle Any Meal
Size: Extra Large (Pack of 1)
I’ve been using the Dixie Ultra Large Paper Plates for a while now, and they really stand out from regular paper plates. At 11 inches, they’re a great size for big meals, and the 25-count pack lasts long enough for gatherings or family dinners. What impressed me the most is how sturdy they are—3 times stronger than typical paper plates. These plates hold up well even with heavy or messy foods without bending or leaking, which is a huge plus. They’re also microwave-safe, so reheating food is easy without worrying about the plate falling apart. Plus, they’re soak-proof and cut resistant, making them perfect for anything from saucy pasta to juicy burgers. If you want plates that won’t fail you during mealtime, these Dixie Ultra plates are a solid choice for strength and convenience.

Fantastic plates!
Size: Extra Large (Pack of 1)
These plates were huge--perfect for the Thanksgiving feast. The plates were sturdy and held up to the weight of the food. Even others in attendance commented on how good the plates were and that they were big enough to hold larger portions which meant people didn't have to go back for seconds. The thickness of the plates was good--gravy didn't leak through. I plan to buy them again for future large holiday meals.

Great plates for the holidays and family gatherings!
Size: Extra Large (Pack of 1), Size: Extra Large (Pack of 1)
These plates are sturdy and designed to hold even the heaviest of meals without bending or folding, which is a huge plus when you're serving barbecue or pasta dishes. One of the standout features is their size; they’re large enough to accommodate generous portions, making them perfect for parties or picnics. I also appreciated the attractive design, which adds a nice touch to the table setting. Cleanup was a breeze, as they are disposable and save me from the hassle of washing up after the event. Additionally, they don’t soak through easily, so I didn’t have to worry about any leaks or messes, even with saucy foods. Overall, I highly recommend Dixie Ultra Large Paper Plates for anyone looking for a reliable and stylish disposable plate option. They combine functionality with aesthetic appeal, making them a perfect choice for any occasion!
