Hi, my name is Blake. Yes, I'm a girl. Yes, I want to be a spy. Ever since I was a little girl, I dreamt about being a spy. Solving the crime, saving the country. No, it wasn't the usual career a little girl normally wanted, but I wasn't normal and I knew it. Even though I had wanted to be a spy, I hadn't taken any steps to make it happen. Until one day, opportunity came knocking on my door. Now, my neighbor was missing, my house had been ransacked and a mysterious green-eyed hottie, that made my heart race, was coming around. This was my chance. This was the moment I had been waiting for. Something strange was taking place, and I was determined to find out what was going on, even if it got the best of me. Even if I ended up in over my head!

Then again, there's no time for a relationship crisis when Bella's doing her best to derail her father's wedding and stay one step ahead of a killer. Is God sending her a message in all of this madness? With a murderer on the loose and her boyfriend's ex on the prowl, this undercover clown has never had more to juggle--or more to risk.

Book Description
James Baldwin’s final novel is “the work of a born storyteller at the height of his powers” (The New York Times Book Review). “Not everything is lost. Responsibility cannot be lost, it can only be abdicated. If one refuses abdication, one begins again.” The stark grief of a brother mourning a brother opens this stunning, unforgettable novel. Here, in a monumental saga of love and rage, James Baldwin goes back to Harlem, to the church of his groundbreaking novel Go Tell It on the Mountain, to the forbidden passion of Giovanni’s Room, and to the political fire that enflames his nonfiction work. Here, too, the story of gospel singer Arthur Hall and his family becomes both a journey into another country of the soul and senses—and a living contemporary history of black struggle in this land.

But when Hannah’s boss asks her to be part of a treasure-hunting reality show for teens, she instantly feels ill.
