Kelly Frank is EarthCent's top diplomat on Union Station, but her job description has always been a bit vague. The pay is horrible and she's in hock up to her ears for her furniture, which is likely to end up in a corridor because she's behind on rent for her room. Sometimes she has to wonder if the career she has put ahead of her personal life for fifteen years is worth it. When Kelly receives a gift subscription to the dating service that's rumored to be powered by the same benevolent artificial intelligence that runs the huge station, she decides to swallow her pride and give it a shot. But as her dates go from bad to worse, she can only hope that the supposedly omniscient AI is planning a happy ending. Book Two The alien diplomats are finally willing to talk to the ambassador. They must want something. Five years after her promotion, Kelly has settled into married life and her job as the EarthCent ambassador.

Of course, EarthCent has no institutional knowledge of what spies do, or how they work, so the new agency gets off to a slow start.
