JEAN WEBB GREW UP WITHOUT A FATHER in the years after World War I, and she learned early on that she needed to go after what she wanted. Following in the footsteps of her Marine lieutenant father, she decided to serve her country, joining the Reserve Officers' Training Corps while at Missouri University. Graduating with high honors, she became a second lieutenant in the US Army Intelligence Corps. After learning German and working at Army headquarters, she was recruited by the Office of Strategic Services, where she participated in important and dangerous missions during World War II. When the war was over her work wasn't done: She spent a year and a half catching escaped Nazis and kicking communists out of northern Italy before settling down to a calm life as a private investigator in Phoenix, Arizona. But only six months passed before an undercover FBI agent in Mexico discovered that a hit had been put on Jean's head. A past that she thought was over had caught up with her, and Jean was called back into action. | The Lady was a Spy by TR Garrison, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
