-- ABOUT THE BOOK --
Cammie Morgan is just a typical teenage girl in a typical school --- that is, if every teenage girl routinely broke CIA codes in computer class and every high school was really an elite spy academy! But spy school is a breeze compared to the most dangerous mission Cammie is about to face in her sophomore year --- falling in love.
-- AUTHOR BIOGRAPHY --
Ally Carter is the author of two adult books. I’d Tell You I Love You, But Then I’d Have to Kill You was her first young adult novel. Ally’s fans are eagerly awaiting this book, the title of which Ally had kept secret and encrypted into code (a real code that actual spies have used to convey actual secrets!) and posted on her Web site --- AllyCarter.com --- for her fans to try to crack.
-- EXCERPT --
17:35 hours (that's 5:35 P.M.): The Operative moved into position.
18:00 hours: The Operative was wishing she'd brought something to eat because she couldn't leave her post to go buy a candy bar, much less use the bathroom.
18:30 hours: The Operative realized it's almost impossible to look pretty and/or seductive if you SERIOUSLY have to go pee.

Back in my room, I had fifty pages of The Art of War left to translate into Arabic, a credit card-slash-fingerprint modifier to perfect for Dr. Fibs, and Madame Dabney had been dropping big pop-quiz hints at the end of C&A. Yet there I was, rubbing my swelling ankle and thinking that I really should be getting CoveOps extra credit for this.
I looked at my watch again: seven forty-five. Okay, I thought, I'll give him until eight and then…
"Hi," I heard from behind me…
I could have said hi back in fourteen different languages (and that's not including pig Latin). And yet I was speechless as he came to stand in front of me.
