If the Venetian intelligence services recruited me, it was certainly not because of the reputation of a discreet young woman with an enigmatic smile that my friend Leonardo had given me. Because, when it was necessary to go and find this great scatterbrain in the depths of the Barbary Desert, after his capture by a band of looters, this mission proved to be more complex than I imagined. And, without losing my joie de vivre, I had to get my claws out and fight hard to get him out of this bad situation. Veni, vidi, Vinci...! Mona Lisa. Publication date: June 1, 2023 Order
Aware that my friend Leonardo had the unfortunate reputation of being slow to honor his current commissions, I had long ago given up on seeing my portrait finished. He probably no longer even remembered having started it. Too bad for him. By this failure, he was letting slip a unique opportunity to become famous, I sometimes joked, sticking my tongue out at my mirror, laughing, just to mock my vanity.
