Maggie Bird is a lot of things. A chicken farmer. A courteous neighbour. And a seemingly average 60-year-old woman living a quiet life in bucolic Purity, Maine. And she never talks about her past. When a mysterious woman turns up dead in Maggie's driveway, she knows it's a calling card from old times. It's been fifteen years since she managed Operation Cyrano, which blew apart her life and cost her the man she loved. The start of a new series - for fans of spy thrillers and cosy crime alike.
