From domestic duplicity to diplomatic double-crosses, the nanny spies of Norwood have their hands full

In this thrilling and twisty follow-up to author Monica McGurk's critically acclaimed The Agency, protagonist Bree and her fellow nanny spies from the Norwood Agency --an independent global spy ring fronting as a British college for aspiring nannies to the elite -- race against the clock to locate the children kidnapped under her watch during their first inauspicious mission in Turkey. Distrusting each other and facing betrayal at every turn, the trio's search leads them to the shocking truth about orphaned Bree's dead parents and the mission that got them killed when she was still a baby.

Taut and thrilling, The Handler shows what happens when the young women of Norwood Agency exploit stereotypes and weaponize domesticity to influence international events. In doing so, it plumbs motherhood, intergenerational family drama, and the difficult choices facing modern women against a backdrop of some of the greatest diplomatic events of recent history. A portrait of loss and regret wrapped up as a feminist twist on the spy genre, The Handler will leave readers asking themselves, like Bree: just what are they prepared to do in the pursuit of truth?
