At the ripe old age of twenty, girl genius Sabrina Masters was booted from the CIA for "willful insubordination." Now, ten years later, they want her back for a mission only she has the brains to complete--breaking a twisted code to flush out a terrorist. Too bad the mission comes with her former trainer and ex-lover--Quinlan--attached.
