In her debut novel 'American Spy,' Laura Wilkinson tells the story of a black woman leading a double life as a spy, leaping between New York, the Caribbean and West Africa for 30 years.
Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy , its wise old hero George Smiley is discussing the inherent paradox of the cover stories that spies adopt."The more identities a man has," Smiley says,"the more they express the person they conceal." This fan-dance of identity — with its many concealments and revelations — is central to American Spy , an excitingly sharp debut novel by the talented newcomer Lauren Wilkinson.
And we follow Marie again in the 1980s, when she's become an ambitious but frustrated FBI agent in the New York bureau doing small-time work she doesn't believe in: She gets snitches to spill info on a harmless Pan-African group that the feds think is radical. Things pick up when Marie is approached by a slippery CIA man named Ross.
