"Book Review: Chatelet"

A glamorous and grimy international thriller that creeps into chaos
No one can do what Izzy Stone does. And even if they could, they wouldn't be able to do it like her. She's a Secret Service agent, familiar with saving lives and experienced in many fields, including cyberterrorism. She is a lover, a daughter, and a sister. She is glamorous, badass, and gifted.
When Izzy is newly appointed to a special assignment which could decide the fate of hundreds of thousands of lives, all of these aspects of her person will be put to the test. While I struggle with staying on top of my taxes, Izzy Stone juggles multiple lives while also being the chicest woman out there.
