Former CIA Chief Of Disguise Jonna Mendez Releases In True Face

In True Face: A Woman's Life in the CIA, Unmasked (PublicAffairs; on sale March 5, 2024) is full of high-stakes stories, like when Mendez came face to face with a rogue Jihadi who had brought down an American plane and when she helped steal a top-secret encryption machine from a Soviet embassy. While In True Face takes readers into the shadowy sides of some of the most important episodes during the Cold War; it also explores the culture within the CIA, making an honest assessment of what it took for a woman to even get a job there-never mind rise through the ranks to one of the agency's most important jobs. This is the story of an incredible spy career and what it took to achieve it.
