"After all, what's a story if it can't be shared?" First, she was simply Elle Devine. For all of a matter of months, that is. Then came Rosie Delmont. Isla Costablos. Sadie Stott and Katherine Stewart. There were many more of them, the identities. After being left outside of an orphanage at just a few weeks old, a woman came for Elle. The woman wearing dark sunglasses on a cold winters night and flaunting a tight black dress came along, holding her clipboard. The adoption papers were signed and Elle, as she'd been known to her care workers , was to be under the guardianship of The Secret Service. An entire life lived as different people began, identity after identity, rarely lasting more than a year, as the orphaned child was placed in different undercover families. But Elle Devine wants more. Why shouldn't she be allowed to live, simply as herself? It's time to reclaim her life. And where did her life begin?
