5…………..> Sweet Memories Of A Former Spy

.
A former associate at the Central Investigation Agency (CIA) reveals some interesting details during her eight years at the agency, including the use of Starbucks coffee shops to meet their handlers, all in ex-CIA agent Amaryllis Fox book “Life Undercover: Coming of Age in the CIA”:
