Description: The Unexpected Spy by Tracy Walder, Jessica Anya Blau Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description A highly entertaining account of a young woman who went straight from her college sorority to the CIA, where she hunted terrorists and WMDs Publisher Description When Tracy Walder enrolled at the University of Southern California, she never thought that one day she would offer her pink beanbag chair in the Delta Gamma house to a CIA recruiter, or that shed fly to the Middle East under an alias identity.The Unexpected Spy is the riveting story of Walders tenure in the CIA and, later, the FBI. In high-security, steel-walled rooms in Virginia, Walder watched al-Qaeda members with drones as President Bush looked over her shoulder and CIA Director George Tenet brought her donuts. She tracked chemical terrorists and searched the world for Weapons of Mass Destruction. She created a chemical terror chart that someone in the White House altered to convey information she did not have or believe, leading to the Iraq invasion. Driven to stop terrorism, Walder debriefed terrorists-men who swore theyd never speak to a woman-until they gave her leads. She followed trails through North Africa, Europe, and the Middle East, shutting down multiple chemical attacks.Then Walder moved to the FBI, where she worked in counterintelligence. In a single year, she helped taking down one of the most notorious foreign spies ever caught on American soil. Catching the bad guys wasnt a problem in the FBI, but rampant sexism was. Walder left the FBI to teach young women, encouraging them to find a place in the FBI, CIA, State Department or the Senate-and thus change the world. Author Biography Tracy Walder is a former Staff Operations Officer (SOO) at the CIAs Counterterrorism Center and a Special Agent at the FBIs Los Angeles Field Office specializing in Chinese counterintelligence operations. Walder currently teaches high-school history and government courses at Hockaday School in Dallas, Texas.
