CIA trainee Annie Walker is suddenly plucked from the inner sanctum of the agency and promoted to field operative, and while it seems she went from obscurity to the fire because of her exceptional linguistic skills, something or someone from her past may be the reason her bosses shifted her career path. Now that Annie finds herself on assignments with no rules or training to guide her, all she can rely on is her intuition ... and the guidance of CIA military intelligence agent Auggie Anderson, a one-time special operative until he was blinded during a mission. Auggie helps Annie navigate the intricate CIA bureaucracy, and he quickly becomes the one person she can trust.

Frans B @FransB 05/11/2025 Seems to be kicking it up a notch, which is good, Piper Perabo and Christopher Gorham makes it all the more exciting. All cast still excels in character, script still top notch and cinematography great. Lots of action and spycraft makes for easy watching. Always very entertaining, love it See more 08/22/2019 I really liked this show. Piper Perabo is fantastic. See more 08/29/2016 The entertainment continues, with Piper remaining easy on the eyes. See more 11/24/2013 While flushing out some of it's core characters the espionage's 2nd Season feels more like a repetition of it's freshman season See more Read all reviews
