PositiveThe New York Times Book ReviewWallach...recounts the remarkable exploits of her subject with suspense, élan and a generous helping of glamour ... Wallach draws heavily on Harrison’s own writing, which provides delightful firsthand descriptions of some of history’s most influential characters. Wallach’s extensive research is as well-deployed ... Some of Wallach’s descriptions rely too heavily on cliché...while others are deliciously over-the-top ... Wallach is wise to keep the focus firmly on Harrison’s espionage career, by far the most exciting part of her varied résumé, but may leave some readers with lingering questions.

RaveThe New York Times Book Review\"... electric ... Lucy’s fierce first-person point of view is as confident and fearless as she is on the court; she narrates her story with the immediacy and sharpness of a sports commentator, mixed with the pathos and wisdom of a perceptive adolescent charting the perils of her senior year of high school ... Czapnik... captures nostalgia — for both a vanishing New York and Lucy’s evaporating childhood — with the lucidity of a V.R. headset ... Reader, beware: Spending time with Lucy is unapologetic fun, and heartbreak, and awe as well.\
