"It is a fun book to read and the photographs of the real spies and actual letters pertaining to cases are interesting."

Richardson Independent School District, October 26, 2011

"Well done and lots of fun!!"

Essex County Association of School Librarians, October 2011

". . . these titles provide abundant information for young intelligence gatherers."

The Horn Book Guide, Spring 2012

"Mitchell has done the secret world of espionage justice with these titles . . . Easy-to-read, informative titles."

School Library Journal, March 2012

". . . a well written book about spying and double agents."

South Sound Book Review Council, January 27, 2012

"By telling the tales of double agents Mitchell touches on a fascinating aspect of spying. Men and women who led double lives had to develop sophisticated cover stories, drop boxes, and persuasion tools. Such lives seem almost fictional but, as Susan K. Mitchell shows in this fine book, they have and continue to occur."
