ABOUT THE SERIES

Loveday is an agent with the Ivory Tower.

The lack of a last name comes from the fact that Loveday is really a codename. It was given her by herself out of a book her mother left her years before. Loveday tells us that only a couple of her closest associates know the name on her birth certificate and she aims to keep it that way.

A blurb for the first recorded adventure tells us a good deal more about her with: "Known only to the CIA and her handler father, Loveday aspires to be the greatest teenage spy who ever lived. In a hidden bunker under a swanky hotel, she and her team train and execute missions without being noticed by the outside world."

She lets us know in the opening segment of that initial adventure as she infiltrates a private jet, tranquilizes the handful of passengers, steals a valuable briefcase, and then forces to pilot to descend to breathable altitude so she can parachute out that her role model for this was the infamous D.B. Cooper. She also tells us that he was really a retired CIA agent stealing something from a passenger on that airliner. "The ransom and escape in midair were just theatrics. My grandpa was a dramatic person." Loveday is pretty dramatic herself when she lets herself be.

Soon we learn that her father, codename (we assume) Royal, is head of the Ivory Tower team, that term apparently a reference to the very interesting headquarters of the small group directly connected to the Agency but also largely autonomous of its control. [Note, on that HQ, it is neither a tower nor made to look the bit ivory.] He has helped train her to be potentially be the best agent the CIA has ever had but she is still 17 and still learning and still capable of making mistakes.

She finds herself reassigned to a mundane hotel job outside the Ivory Tower. And if that wasn’t punishment enough, Royal adds a new man to the team—Starling, an attractive, highly-trained operative whose skills might just make Loveday obsolete. When classified government software is stolen by a dangerous hacker, Loveday and Starling must work together to stop the program from falling into the wrong hands.

"With no sign of Nexus since Loveday and her team captured his hired thief in St. Petersburg, the Ivory Tower Spies remain on high alert. There’s no telling what havoc Nexus will wreak once he learns how to leverage the facial recognition software he stole. When bodies start appearing, Loveday and her team must race to break into the CIA and secure the agency’s undercover agent files before Nexus does. Because if they fail, more agents will pay with their lives. And one of their own is on the top of the enemy’s hit list."

When two members of Loveday’s team fail to return from a dangerous assignment, and another team member is compromised, she will have to use all of her skill and determination to keep her found family alive. They’re up against an enemy more dangerous than any they’ve ever encountered, and his goal is simple: kill Royal."
