Amy's Reviews > Agent 355

This is a short audio (2 hours 7 minutes) authored by Marie Benedict, who is my author of the year. Meaning that I am reading every book/work of hers I hadn't, and I am delighted to hear she has just come out with the Mitford Files. What a wonderful author to pick! I absolutely went Wow over the Personal Librarian, The Other Einstein, and Hidden Genius. I also really liked the Mystery of Mrs. Christie, and Smoke Signals. Still left to go is Carnegie's Maid, and the Only Woman in the Room.

Like many of my beloved authors, Marie Benedict seeks to explore and elevate the stories of hidden and obscured, but very powerful women in history, who perhaps before now, never got their "due." This audio story centers on Agent 355, a woman at the center of the Culper Ring, during the Revolutionary War. Her character is fictional, but aligns with her supposition of whom it might have been and how it may have went. The story was great, and I really enjoyed it.
