Story
[edit]The story follows Susan, also named as Lady S, who is an agent working for the secretive non-governmental organisation called the Centre for Anti-Terrorism Research and Intelligence Gathering (CATRIG). She is also the aide to her adopted father who is a USA diplomat. Previously she had been a refugee and a thief. CATRIG is an organisation and nobody has clue on that. It has been run by a group of retired intelligence officers of EU. Susan is an adopted daughter and principal collaborator of James Fitzroy, a roving ambassador and special correspondent for the American Secretary of State in Europe. Susan is a clever, multilingual young woman, in full bloom and perfectly happy in the eyes of an attentive father, but this too-perfect happiness hides many faults, sorrows and mysteries.
