I really loved this book. It reminds me that the struggles of motherhood are universal and timeless. This is the story of a woman struggling to remember who she is as she feels trapped by her marriage and motherhood. While most of us don't get to be spies, it reminds us that sometimes we have to put our happiness ahead of the happiness of others - and I think that's okay.
