Tinker, Tailor, Schoolmum, Spy by Faye Brann

You are instantly captivated by her wholesome writing and also Vickys funny character and the spy scenario. Not read a spy mystery before and it's safe to say I LOVED IT and want to read more spy stories.įayre writes absolutely brilliantly. Lies, secrets and betrayals with awesome kick ass skills and equally awesome gadgets. The undercover spy mission was brilliant and everything slowly emerges. Her inner dialogue (her thinking) was just so much fun! Also the PTA meetings.will never look at them the same way again! I also like how each mundane task Vicky does, she executes it like a mission. Vicky is hillarous and such an embarrassing mother to her children (aren't we all!?) I absolutely loved the paintballing scene in the opening of this book, it was just so intense and I generally thought she was on a spy mission. It's grieving for your old life but when you think about it, it really isn't as fullfilling as being a parent is. It's the battle of loving being a mother but also losing who you once were. I really enjoyed the identity crisis Vicky has, which lets be fair all of us mothers have at least a dozen times. I love the tug of war with unconditional love for her kids, and the 'I just want some me time' scenario. Vicky is hillarous and she just excelled all of us mothers feelings. She's back in action with the thrill and new gadgets, but soon things get far too close to home for her. Vicky is tasked to restart her job, because someone whose part of her school friends circle is actually a very dodgy criminal. After having a blast at a paintballing party for a friends husbands 40th, she starts reminiscing her old life.unknown to her that her old life wants her back undercover. She however hates the lies and double life. She's a sharp shooter with a gun and is very clever at recon and undercover work. The thing about Vicky though is she was once and undercover spy for MI5 and she misses the thrill. The only job available is to be a part of her kids school PTA team, which she reluctantly agrees too. She wants to work, have a self fullfilling job where she's appreciated.

She's happily married and loves her kids, but she's stuck in a rut. We follow Vicky whose a 40 something Mum of three.

It's sassy, funny, intense, incredible character has an interesting mystery. A huge thank you to and for my #gifted copy of my book for this book was just absolutely perfect.
