ABOUT THE SERIES

The Spies of Escondida is a small intelligence agency.

First, a bit of info on Escondida. And that is about all I can come up with - a bit. Its location is almost certainly in Europe. A name like Escondida could, of course, have fit fine in Central or South America but the pictures on the covers of the recorded adventures clearly show castle architecture that belongs in Europe, probably somewhere in the Alps although the Pyrenees would also work. The country is still a monarchy, current ruler being King Mateo. [Unfortunately, the man's name does not help in guessing the country's location as it would work for either Spain or Italy or even, according to the Internet, Croatia.] He is married to Maria, the Queen, and has three children, two grown - Prince Martin and Princess Liliana (Lily) - and one nearly - Isabella. The size of the country is also not stated but events definitely make it sound far larger than a principality like Monaco or Lichtenstein.

Now, regarding the agency mention above, it got its genesis when a royal activity was planned and Prince Martin placed in charge of security. That man knew he was not up to the task but also knew of a woman living in the country who was more than qualified. He approached her and convinced her to take the assignment. She knew that she would need a team to properly handle the situation and put together a new team under her command. This was quite a departure for the woman, though, as she was known for preferring to work either alone or with a solo partner.

The members of the team are (last names are apparently optional as they were not given):

Lucia - the founder and leader of the agency. She had been a highly successful freelance operative throughout Europe for a good number of years before the need to put together this team. We learn as the adventures progress that she was well trained by her father who is also a famous freelance operative. She is skilled in many fields such as planning, fighting (armed and unarmed), and analysis.


Lily - full name Liliana - daughter of the King of Escondida and secretly an operative in the agency. She was freelance before the organization got its start and works very hard to keep her vocation a secret from her family.


Julia - personal assistant to Lily in her role as princess and a partner-in-spying to Lily in actuality. She is an expert analyst, "a whiz at putting together seemingly unconnected pieces of information and making sense of them".


Sophia - tech wizard for the organization who enjoys frequently changing the color of her short hair. A freelancer like Lucia before the group was founded, she was the best techie that Lucia had ever worked with and they had worked together on numerous occasions in the past.


Lara- cousin to Lucia and an expert with any and all weapons.
