She's not here to play.

Lex Tyler is trying to have it all, but being a working mother is so much more difficult when you're a secret agent for an underground branch of the security services.

Platform Eight have been tasked with tracking down and eliminating the traitor in MI6 who has been selling information to the highest bidder through a website that connects intelligence operatives with all manner of bad people at a simple right swipe.

Deals get made. Secrets get sold. Missions fail. And agents die.

It's down to Lex and her team to identify and eliminate the traitor before they cause a huge international incident. But when your husband doesn't know what your job entails and the future of the intelligence services rests on your shoulders, can she save the day and make it home in time for bedtime
