Caitlyn never asked for a secret agency to spend millions of dollars saving her life and certainly has no desire to work for "The Boss" out of some misplaced gratitude. She loves her salon and fully intends to keep running it; cutting and colouring hair keeps her far too busy to track down the governments most wanted. Reluctantly agreeing to perform 1 assignment only, Caitlyn is transported to a computer hacker's home and ordered to neutralise him. Feeling sorry for the nerdy kid with an almost unhealthy interest in porn, she tries a different method of persuasion, leaving a smile on the kids face and the promise to never again release his computer viruses. As far as Caitlyn is concerned it's a job well done, the Boss however has a different opinion.
When the lab team responsible for OSF's nanobyte technology start being murdered, the reluctant agent is informed that she isn't exactly unique. A former agent of OSF, a gifted linguist named Dmitri Novokov was also infected by nanobytes. Unfortunately he has now gone rogue and is blamed for the deaths of the scientists. Caitlyn agrees to find him, yet the tables are turned when the former very talented and extremely handsome Dmitri hunts her, thinking Caitlyn responsible for these murders.
MJD has again created a wonderfully ditzy heroine. Caitlyn is a 21st century bionic woman, complete with a Terminator-like computer screen beaming data directly into her brain, mood signifying hair highlights, a large strawberry daiquiri and the desire to make every woman's day a "good hair day". Nicknamed "Mirage" by the OSF team (for her strange ability to never appear for an assignment); Caitlyn wants to party hard and finds that saving the world intrudes into her social life. When the Boss then announces that he is dating her best friend Stacey Gwen, things surely can't get any worse?? Fans of MJD's Undead series will certainly enjoy this book. Yes this is standard formula from MJD, it's another great story of a wacky heroine with a smart mouth who is seriously out of her depth - but when it works so well why change it?
