IT'S THE 1980's-There are NO cell phones, tablets and computers are a rarity! Ronald Regan is President and John Paul II reigns as the current Pope!
Paula Giordano, a cheeky, sassy, smart wannabe spy and Italian-New Yorker, following in her father's giant footsteps, trashes it all and escapes to Strasbourg, France: Realizing that she is just no match to her Pop, the Iconic, Tony Giordano! Desperate to prove herself, shedding her spook life for the opportunity of a lifetime, exchanging her "cover" identity for her artistic true self, she accepts a contract to illustrate an historical book on the Ancient City from the world-famous historian, Dr. Karl Junger.
