Sunscreen, waterproof mascara, and a silenced .38 will take a girl anywhere she wants to go in life.Top Carrie Mae agent Nikki Lanier's nemesis and ex-partner Val Robinson has returned from the dead and she wants Nikki's help. When Val said that Phillipe Lanier-Nikki's long-absent father-had been kidnapped, Nikki dropped everything-friends, family, boyfriend, to fly to the rescue. But soon Nikki realizes that her father's kidnapping may not be what it seems and she may have just tanked her life for one of his ridiculous schemes. As Nikki and Val arrive in Amsterdam, Nikki realizes that if wants to her life back, she's going to have to not only stop an international arms dealer, but convince her boyfriend, CIA Agent Z'ev Coralles, that she's not the bad guy and that Carrie Mae isn't a terrorist organization. But with Philippe refusing to be rescued, and an INTERPOL agent gunning for Val and Nikki, as well as making moves on Z'ev, Nikki is starting to doubt her own abilities. Can she do it, or is it a Glossed Cause?
