I won this book in a goodreads drawing.

An alternative history set in a world where Theodore Roosevelt won the election of 1912. The conditions to bring on World War One are in motion, and T.R. has inaugurated a proto-CIA to stop such shenanigans.

The heroine of the story, Luz O'Malley Arostegui, is a personal friend to TR, and the only female member of the spy group, The Black Chamber. She goes on assignment, and from there, you basically get a Modesty Blaize novel, only without Willy.

Pretty decent.
