2000s: Can you be a mother AND a secret service agent?
The guilt-fuelled, anxiety-filled first day back in the office after maternity leave.
But this working mum is one of a kind.
Meet Alexis Tyler.
An elite covert agent within Her Majesty’s Secret Service.
Her first project back is a high-stakes hit of global significance and the old boys network of government espionage is far from ready for the return of an operational mother. But woe betide anyone who ever tells Alexis Tyler ‘you can’t’.
She will have it all. Or she’ll die trying . . .
And yes, she damn well will be home for bath time.
Well this is not a side to the security services you will have read before! A working mother worried about leaving leaking breastmilk at the scene of a crime incase it interferes with the DNA there.

Platform 8 at Holborn Tube is where the most secret place of all exists. But you can’t see it – that’s the point. Imagine the secret tunnels running all around the city though. Not just rats scurrying about here!
