Meet Emma: Spy, Teenager, Outsider

Age: 18
Born: Marseille, France
Lives: Belfast, Northern Ireland
Occupation: Student by day. Spy… always.

Who is Emma?

Emma looks like any ordinary teenager—quiet, observant, clever. But beneath her composed surface lies a dangerous secret: she’s one of MI5’s youngest and most lethal operatives.

Born in the sunlit streets of Marseille and raised between cultures, Emma never quite fit in. By 16, she was recruited into a covert British intelligence training programme. By 18, she was embedded deep undercover in Belfast, Northern Ireland.

To her classmates, she’s just the new girl with an accent and a past she won’t talk about. To her handlers, she’s a precision instrument—brilliant, calculating, and deadly when she needs to be.

But what happens when the lines between her two worlds begin to blur?

A Spy With Something to Lose

Emma has always been a weapon, trained to lie, fight, and disappear. But living in Belfast—making friends, going to school, feeling things she’s never been allowed to feel—makes her question who she really is.

And in the world of espionage, doubt can be deadly.
