Jacky Faber is a spy, romantic, adventurer, and tomboy who’s also tough and tenderhearted. Narrator Katherine Kellgren captures each of Jacky’s personas to perfection. As a spy, Jacky spends time in Spain, where she's a model in Goya's home and studio. Her education with the artist and angry encounters with the jealous Carmelita are priceless—and very funny. Kellgren deftly captures each character, accent, and emotion. Her pacing is nearly flawless. The frequent use of "um" becomes trademark Jacky and accurately captures her personality and thinking style. It's almost unimaginable to even consider not listening to this grand series on audio!
